System upgrades adding Cairo Dock to autoremove list?

Post by darkstrike »

Hi all - I've noticed that when I do a system upgrade (Mint 20 -> 20.1, or 20.1 > 20.2, etc), the system for no reason adds my Cairo Dock to the autoremove list.....so if I run 'sudo apt-get autoremove' to clean up my system a bit......it uninstalls Cairo-dock......

Example:

Is there a way to prevent this, or to at least get cairo-dock off the autoremove list so I can run it normally again without having it take my Cairo dock away and me having to reinstall it?

Thanks!
