[Bug 844485] [NEW] apt-get man page language/grammar improvement

[Robert Simmons]

Public bug reported:

In the apt-get man page, under the heading "autoremove," the grammar can be improved.  At the moment it reads "autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for some package and that are no more needed."  A better version is:
"autoremove is used to remove packages that were automatically installed to satisfy dependencies for another package and are no longer needed."
