I was chatting on IRC today, and suddenly the update manager asked me to do a partial upgrade. I know that can cause trouble, so I denied it and looked to see what needed updating. There are 71 packages, most of them KDE. I don't even use KDE, except for maybe a few packages. Is one of them causing me to update kdebase-runtime, KDE 4 System settings, and libkdecore5 packages? I do not have a KDE repository in my software sources.
How can I keep Ubuntu from asking me to do a partial upgrade?
Should I permanently deny these KDE packages from being updated? How?
Will updating these packages cause harm to my computer?
Note: I accidentally did a partial upgrade a few months back but reversed most of the side effects. I'm hoping a full upgrade to natty will completely cure my system.
