Description Hans Lunsing 2011-11-03 19:08:36 UTC
Version:           1.2.1 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

This conduct is especially problematic when one marks more then one package for removal. It's not possible to see in the list of changes which change is the consequence of which removal command. To be safe it effectively limits you to remove packages one by one. 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Mark for instance some libraries for removal. 

Actual Results:  
It's not possible to tell which library removal is responsible for the inclusion of the removal of a certain package in the list of changes.

Expected Results:  
Muon should do it in the same way as synaptic: when one marks a package for removal one should be warned about the removal of dependencies and given the opportunity to cancel the removal.
