I have noted after installing the first huge block of updates you get after a fresh installation, Unity 3D would disappear leaving me only 2D support. So, not exactly knowing what did that depend on, I chose to deselect all Unity-2D updates from the list. The problem is, every time new updates are introduced, that ones I'm desperately trying to avoid are always showing up. That's for me annoying, as I have to manually deselect them all the times, and dangerous, as every time I risk installing them and find everything screwed up.
Now, is there a way to tell update manager to forget about those packages unless I expressly request them? Or at least to make him show them already deselected among all others?
Is it sufficiently trying to hold them? I mean, some may be new packages, instead of already existing packages that are being brought to a newer version. If someone can tell me also which packages the 2D depend on, so that I can install other maybe useful packages, that's even better.
The ones I deselected are: libunity-2d-private0
, unity-2d
, unity-2d-common
, unity-2d-panel
, unity-2d-shell
, unity-2d-spread
