It tries to save the system by installing alternatives for packages it has to remove cause of its (indirect) dependency on libdb4.8. (See #591882 and revno 1974.1.5 for a bit more details) The problem is now, that one of this rescue tries causes that libdb4.8 is reinstalled again somewhere deep down the dependency list… The offending part can be disabled by -o pkgProblemResolver::FixByInstall=0 I said in the bugreport that i fear it will bite back, now it has. I guess we will need a way to tell the resolver that he can't override certain changes (some parts already know this, but the depcache doesn't know it…).
