I would have thought the long list of packages it was going to
remove because of dependencies would clue in most people. Didn't it
say something along the lines of removing package foo requires
removing (long list) that require foo, do you wish to proceed? with
no as the default answer?
Do we really want to insult people by asking "Are you sure?" again
after getting them to confirm that they do want to remove a long
list of packages?
