Using deborphan

From: CsÃ¡nyi PÃ¡l <csanyipal(at)csanyi-pal.info>

Hello!

I purge the orphaned packages on a Debian system: sudo deborphan | less

and then copy / paste to the aptitude search, and then purge in aptitude.

Is there an automated way to do this task out there?

man deborphan and man aptitude dont shows any suggestion about that.

I try:
sudo deborphan | aptitude purge

but this does nothing.

On this system I purged the X Window system, so there are only the consoles out there.

Do you need help?

Any advice will be appreciated!
