Clean up uninstalled program dependencies

[TheBigAmbulance]

Hey Guys,

Let's say I install "Program X" that had 10 dependencies. After a while, I decide that I do not want it any longer and uninstall it. The dependencies would stay installed.

What would I need to do in order to clean out unneeded dependencies?

apt-get autoclean

??

Thanks

Nope.

sudo apt-get autoremove

See man apt-get for the differences in autoclean and autoremove.
