What is the cryptic part here? The answer tells you anything you need
to know. Plus reading some documentation if you don't understand some
bits is always useful. And if you are frightened of depclean you
should at least know what -p means so this wont damage anything.
Regarding udept, I would really like the idea if someone ore the
original maintainer starts continuing this excellent tool. For now it
works quite reliable but being unmaintained I fear it will get more
and more unusable.
