Okay, after reading aptitude help a while, I tryed installing pd with pd-extended already installed on Linux. It says extended will be removed due to 1 conflict. When I expand the view it says its due to the unresolved dependency GEM.<br>
<br>It doesn't make much sense in my head, if I do not need GEM I shouldn't be forced to install it. I can try installing GEM to see if then pd will not uninstall pd-extended.<br><br>if my opinion can count for anything, it would be nice if we could clear out the installation of packages to a more transparent/independent way, as talked in this list.<br>

</div>then i would recommend everybody to use aptitude and check why the<br>
package manager wants to uninstall pd-extended.<br>
and then resolve the issues.<br>
<br>
everything else is guesswork, and i feel i have already spent too much<br>
time guessing.<br>

</div>and one more guess: maybe your pd-extended was already marked for<br>
removal before that.<br>
