I want to install mailman (just to use it's mail archiving feature) but Ubuntu wants to pull down a load of extra dependencies.
sudo apt-get install mailman
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-common
Suggested packages:
apache2-doc apache2-suexec apache2-suexec-custom spamassassin lynx listadmin
Is there any way to mark those packages ( apache2 apache2-mpm-worker apache2.2-common ) as never to be installed? This is not 2002 ;)
