Fixes: #2376. Fixes: #2317. When an app is removed, its packages are purged. However, there is another installed app that needs these packages, we should keep those packages. We have already implemented checking the packages against other apps' packages. However, we are not checking if we are removing dependencies of other apps' packages. This will still result in removal apps' packages. To solve this problem, get list of packages of all the apps, then iterate over their dependencies recursively and compile a comprehensive list of packages to keep. Use this to reduce the set of packages to remove. Tests: - Without the patch, install bepasty and janus. Uninstall janus app and notice that bepasty package is removed. With the patch, the problem is not observed. - Printing the comprehensive list of packages to keep shows an extensive set computed.

FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.

To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
