Linus somehow managed to remove his DE with sudo apt-get install steam :omegalul:

@matrix @coolboymew ok but apt doing bullshit like that really sets me off any debian based distro
@Xalef @matrix never happened with me with Mx Linux

But he's a retard for not having read the warning. I suppose it wouldn't be stupid to have a second DE installed, just in case some stupid shit like this happen

If he read the warning, then he could've just went to download it from the website itself, it works
@Xalef @matrix @coolboymew yeah apt has a tendency to nuke everything if you try removing a single pre-installed package, I've managed to nuke a few installations accidentally doing that before I learned how apt works within my first few months of using linux

my only question is why trying to install steam forced those packages to be uninstalled, since I've never seen installing something do that
@Alex @Xalef @matrix probably whoever is maintaining it in the repo fucked up
