Ok, achei melhor verificar as dependências deste pacote:
$ apt-cache depends ubuntu-sdk
ubuntu-sdk
Depends: ubuntu-sdk-ide
Hmm ... apenas uma dependência? Vamos ver o que diz:
$ apt-cache depends ubuntu-sdk-ide
ubuntu-sdk-ide
Depends: android-tools-adb
Depends: click
Depends: click-dev
Depends: click-doc
Depends: click-apparmor
Depends: cmake
Depends: intltool
Depends: python3
Depends: devscripts
Depends: dh-make
Depends: rsync
Depends: webapp-container
Depends: gdb-multiarch
Depends: click-reviewers-tools
Depends: phablet-tools
...
Ok, é mais parecido com isso ... Neste ponto, remover ubuntu-sdk
sozinho é o mesmo que no OP, mas quando eu tento remover ubuntu-sdk
e ubuntu-sdk-ide
ambos:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge ubuntu-sdk ubuntu-sdk-ide
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
click-dev click-doc devscripts fcitx-libs freetds-common gdb-multiarch
intltool libboost-program-options1.54.0 libbotan-1.10-0 libjs-sphinxdoc
libjs-underscore libmysqlclient18 libpq5 libsybdb5 libxcb-xinerama0
mysql-common schroot schroot-common
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
ubuntu-sdk* ubuntu-sdk-ide*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
After this operation, 149 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
... que tipo de coisa parece correta (já que eu tinha algumas das dependências instaladas manualmente anteriormente ...) De qualquer forma, espero que seja assim ...
