Thanks for the help Mike and Hans.

Hans: I looked into cruft but it seems a little too early for that one 
:) (The warning made it sound like this program would hose my filesystem).

Now instead I'm using aptitude. It logs all the dependencies of a 
package and will remove those dependencies when deleting the package 
they were installed with. Also I'm using deborphan which takes care of 
deleting any unused libraries that may be laying around.
