Have you been able to get that effect from aptitude?  It seems that
whenever it sees some trouble (sometimes even when plain apt-get would
succeed), it proposes to remove the world, install a few unrelated
packages, and not do whatever you requested it to.  After declining a
varying number of such "solutions", it gives up even if it would take a
single action to resolve the problem.

I'm not sure if it makes sense to recommend aptitude in its present state.
