Nah, --r is definitely the right one here.

I didn’t know you could keep config files like that!

Wait, are you sure? I thought it was --P for purge.

I think "dpkg --s" is just for status, not uninstalling. I need to double-check what "dpkg --r" does again.

I recall that "dpkg --P" is for purging, which deletes everything, so it can't be that one.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like "dpkg --r" might be the right choice. It sounds familiar from practice questions.

I think the command we're looking for is the one that removes the package but keeps the config files. I remember something about "remove" in the options.

No problem, I've got this. I'll use the `docker build` command to create the image with the specified name and tag, then `docker save` to export it to the target location. Easy peasy!

I'm a bit confused by this question. The options don't seem to directly address the question being asked. I'll need to re-read it a few times to make sure I understand what they're looking for.

The key here is the wording "not every application". That suggests the answer is True, even though the manifest file is a crucial part of an Android app. I'll go with True.

I feel like "switchport mode access" would definitely not form a trunk, but I'm confused about how "dynamic desirable" works with DTP.

Wait, is this a trick question? I'm going to go with D) dpkg --r pkgname, because it's the most intuitive option for uninstalling a package without removing the config files.

Haha, good one! I bet the answer is A) dpkg --s pkgname, which stands for 'dpkg --status', because that's clearly not what the question is asking for.

Hmm, this is a tough one. I'm leaning towards B) dpkg --L pkgname, since that lists the files associated with the package. But I'm not entirely confident.

Let's double check. I'll go with D) dpkg --r pkgname as well.

I think you're both wrong. D) dpkg --r pkgname is the command to uninstall a package but leave its configuration files.

I'm not sure about that. I believe A) dpkg --s pkgname is the correct option.
DE

I think it's C) dpkg --P pkgname. That should remove the package but keep its configuration files.
KR

The question is tricky, but I'm pretty sure C) dpkg --P pkgname is the right choice. That option completely purges the package, including the configuration files.
