I had recently fresh installed Lubuntu 11.10
It has also become unusually slow.I don't think that removing the mentioned packages would be a good idea as without them the system will be useless.What can be done?

SOlved it.Went to Synaptic.Saw Broken under custom filters.It showed a 32 bit application i had tried to install on my 64 bit system and had failed.So just removing it did the trick.
