I just installed a cisco vpn. And after installing some required libraries I got the option to get rid of “unused” libraries. So I did ‘sudo apt autoremove’ as suggested. After I rebooted I no longer have a either x11 or wayland in the drop down menu. I can no longer login via the GUI.
Running latest Debian.
Where did I go wrong? Any immediate help appreciated 🙏
Edit: The Cisco VPN required me to download libkit2gtk-4.0-dev if that has anything to do with it?
Edit2: Thanks for all the tips and help. Won’t happen again 😅
Unless you specified --purge, the config files should still be there. It could be that the install script will overwrite them, so if you’re worried you may want to make a backup of the relevant files in /etc before installing anything.
User config files (in the home directory) practically never get deleted by system uninstalls, so those should be fine.
