Thanks. The vague "some kind of troubles" is what I dislike. But this is most likely a consequence of the all-reaching meta-package. I think I've said enough times that one goal of CSSU could be adding proper dependencies where they are missing, so that we can safely remove the metapackage without the next autoremove wiping the system..

BTW, isn't apt-get upgrade supposed to be discouraged? I must say I've never used in myself on my N900.
I use apt-get upgrade regularly (not that much gets updated -- this is not sid --, but it's part of my daily routines).

dist-upgrade is discouraged, but there should no reason for this.

As an example, if I were to do dist-upgrade now I would get { debianutils, diffmo, grep-gnu } at the expense of removing my whole system because of debianutils. It's a fvcked up world

Fully agree with all of the above. You are right, community-ssu-enabler is the icon and should go away after a successful installation (the package remains though). The libcpaboutcssu package is what displays the CSSU version info in Settings. I don't have them either and can live quite happily without them.
OK, thanks for the confirmation.

Install status-area-orientationlock-applet. This will add an entry to your system menu. Use it to lock your phone in landscape. Uninstall status-area-orientationlock-applet. Job done.
Cool. I actually have to read the CSSU wiki, now from the perspective of an actual user
