Package: Bluez-utis Version: 3.36-3 I got carried away and installed bluez-gstreamer (4.60-1-bpo). This necessitated installation of bluez (4.60.1-bpo) which in turn necessitated upgrading of perfectly working bluez-utis (3.36-3).
After the update I had to uninstall the upgraded package, since I lost gnome applet and apparently the system was no more recognizing bluetooth dongles nor communicate with bluetooth devices. My motive was to remove the upgraded package, install the original package and thereby fix the system. However during uninstall, the following message is emitted: "apt-get remove bluez-utils Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: bluetooth bluez-utils 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 2 to remove and 0 not upgraded. After this operation, 1114kB disk space will be freed. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? Y (Reading database ... 135224 files and directories currently installed.) Removing bluetooth ... Removing bluez-utils ...

I could not determine which package provides it. In short SYSTEM DOES NOT ALLOW ME NEITHER UPGRADE NOR DOWNGRADE the package and this package is deadlocked. There are some other indications but the bug reporting rules clearly say do not post multiple buıgs in a single bug report.
