I do long operations which are steadily getting broken by any power or screen saving utility, so I want to have ubuntu without any power or screensaving programs.
I tried:
sudo apt autoremove --purge light-locker*

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
OK, I do not want this. I would like to remove light-locker and xscreensaver totally.
Can you help me? :-)
Thanks
PS. What I have found in the meantime:
less /usr/bin/lxlock This is the program/script that starts various external lockers. You can edit it in nano
sudo nano /usr/bin/lxlock
and put "exit" on the second row, so you computer will not get locked at any time.
It is not a nice way to do it, but it works.
From the given posibillities (man lxlock), I guess the smallest are suckless-tools.
I got it via this strange command:
sudo apt autoremove light-locker* gconf-service gconf-service-backend gconf2 gconf2-common libart-2.0-2 libbonobo2-0 libbonobo2-common libbonoboui2-0 gnome-power-manager gnome-screensaver gnome-settings-daemon-schemas libjpeg-turbo-progs libpam-gnome-keyring libupower-glib3 i3lock libev4
This installs (sic!) the suckless tools. :-))))
Spurious totally, isn't it? :-)
