Hello 
I remember than i want unisntall telent-so i do it x) but i search sudo find -iname "telnet" for fun and I see this: /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/net/telnet and I want give the ask: What is vendor_ruby? is this will be working when I unsitall telnet and telnetd and if I need configure if I installed telent again(Configurate as was on first time in system or if i install telnet - will be the same configuraton how before remove?)
Hi,
I would install Synaptic Package Manager and see if anything is showing there.
Mark each package for Removal, then Apply to remove:
That is for use by Ruby library and is not the same package as telnet, so you do not need to reinstall TelNet.

ok, I understood thank you
I see
My first concatc with linux was in middle school - on lession form configurate linux sever - I was on Ubuntu serwer and I loved consol - helped this than I programing in C++ and Python +/- 8 years and code for me is...relaxing x)
But I many thing in linux is new form me and so...I sometimes panic but I still would write "sudo apt autoremove " or "sudo apt purge"
But I understand your perspective
soooo, I need telned? or I can remove this?
You do not need telnet for that Ruby library.
In terminal, run
apt-cache rdepends telnet
to see what packages depend on telnet and if you have none of those packages, you can safely remove telnet.
If later, you install a package that does depend on it, that package will pull it in as a dependency.
