Don't ever use the purge command with a * on a linux machine unless your hate your system. Yeah, that's the crux of the story I am going to tell you. The warnings are meant for you - read it.
In the quest for making the most 'out' of my laptop, (I guess that best explains my actions) I was jovial for running the best of both gnome and unity on my Ubuntu.The joy was not going to last longer than a few hours. Gnome had been running butter smooth with all awesome extensions installed. Now, the desktop cube feature on unity was also successfully. To add to my success, the IITD caldav server was synced to my alarm-clock signalling the time for windows uninstall.
But, the MAC was always a plus one with it's multi-touch touchpad. The only thing I wanted was that somehow, touchegg, utouch and synaptiks could be made to run such that the three fingers drag can show MAC that ubuntu can do it with three fingers what MAC does with four.
Step one : Re-install all three required software.

Step one : Re-install all three required software.
Result : No change, no new applications created in applications folder.
Step two : Remove touchegg and utouch.
Observation : touch egg removed easily, utouch has got a lot of files and installations, so perhaps utouch* will do the job
Action : sudo apt-get remove utouch*
Observation : blah.. blah.. unable to get lock.. blah.. blah
Action : sudo apt-get purge utouch*
Result : ****Doom***
