35 <para><command>apt-mark</command> will change whether a package has
36 been marked as being automatically installed.

39 When you request that a package is installed, and as a result
40 other packages are installed to satisfy its dependencies, the
e3a1f08d 41 dependencies are marked as being automatically installed. Once
75a3362b 42 these automatically installed packages are no longer depended on
b2fa014b
DK
43 by any manually installed packages, they will be removed by e.g.
44 <command>apt-get</command> or <command>aptitude</command>.
