Because the nm-applet binary is not from nm-applet package. There is no such package. Run dpkg --search /usr/bin/nm-applet or apt-file search bin/nm-applet and find the right package.

| Jun 16, 2020 at 11:35 | comment | added | birdman | @KamilMaciorowski I am not searching for a solution on how to find for the binary. Instead I am wondering why the binary cannot be removed if the "sudo apt remove nm-applet" is run. I updated the question to make it clearer. | |

Plus the question itself gives you dpkg --search ….

| Jun 16, 2020 at 7:14 | comment | added | Kamil Maciorowski | Does this answer your question? How to find out which (not installed) Debian package a file belongs to? Note "not installed" in this case means "not necessarily installed". | |
