I am trying to dist-upgrade my sid machine and am getting a dependency
error:
======
$ apt-get -d --print-uris --ignore-hold dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Failed
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
debconf: Depends: debconf-i18n but it is not going to be installed or
debconf-english but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be
caused by held packages.

I have manually upgrades debconf-i18n and debconf and the currently
installed versions are the latest as reported by 'apt-cache policy':

$ apt-cache policy debconf-i18n debconf
