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. -- ᛊᚨᚾᛁᛏᚣ᛫ᛁᛊ᛫ᚠᛟᚱ᛫ᚦᛖ᛫ᚹᛖᚨᚲ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
