Obviously your community upgrade did not finish fine. Hildon-desktop is not upgraded. This might be triggered by some remainders in /etc/apt/preferences from some former tinkering with customized versions? Try to avoid the autoremove command,just use purge to get rid of the package, then run autoremove, read carefully the output, to remove the dependecies of vlc

Thanks - problem is solved!
Before I installed CSSU I already installed modified-hildon-desktop. Uninstalling and I was able to uninstall vlc again.
Also simple brightness applet is working again...

elsewhere FormerPalmerUser said he uninstalled package by package
for me
Code:
sudo gainroot apt-get purge vlc
how can I uninstall several packages? if someone could give me a clue pls. I'm aware that I'm missing something basic but even this I cannot find info on as I'm sort of ignorant on alternatives between different linux distributions.

Please try
Watch carefully, what will get removed to interrupt immediately, if something valuable will get removed also.
You could also remove left over configuration files with this command
If you are unsure or errors occur, feel free to ask again.

Code:
sudo gainroot apt-get autoremove
You could also remove left over configuration files with this command
Code:
sudo gainroot dpkg -l | grep ^rc | cut -d ' ' -f3 | xargs dpkg --purge

have been able to get some other programs
as root

I made a fault - I install the VLC Version mentioned in the thread http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=361844&postcount=1
It took me about 10 MB from my free rootfs, now I'm only at 32 MB.
I'm using the latest CSSU update
Now I tried to uninstall the packages using
apt-get autoremove --purge vlc (the same with the other packages)
It wasn't possible and I got the following messages:
"Reading package lists...
Building dependency tree...
Reading state information...
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
mp-fremantle-community-pr: Depends: hildon-desktop (>= 1:2.2.142-7) but 1:2.2.140-1+0m5 is to be installed
vlc: Depends: vlc-player (= 1.1.5-1) but it is not going to be installed"
Can anybody give me hint to uninstall VLC and release the 10 MB again?
Thanks in advance
Dirk
