Bug Description

Some software is not correctly uninstalling that was installed with boutique. For example if I install DisplayCAL, and then remove it using Software Boutique the software appears to be uninstalled however it still appears in the whisker menu.

After further examination running:

$ apt search displaycal
Sorting... Done
Full Text Search... Done
dispcalgui/disco,disco 3.7.1.4-1 all
  transitional dummy package to displaycal

displaycal/disco,now 3.7.1.4-1 amd64 [installed,auto-removable]
  Graphical user interface for the Argyll CMS.

Boutique installed dispcalgui, and displaycal was installed as a dependency, but not removed when it was marked to remove in boutique.

summary: - Software boutique not properly installing software after it was marked
+ Software boutique not properly uninstalling software after it was marked
to remove
