I'm trying to force remove a package, but get this output:

$ sudo apt-get remove xml-parser-pm588
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
   intltool40: Depends: xml-parser-pm588 but it is not going to be  
installed
   software-license-pm588: Depends: data-section-pm588 but it is not  
going to be installed
                           Depends: mro-compat-pm588 but it is not  
going to be installed
                           Depends: sub-exporter-pm588 but it is not  
going to be installed
                           Depends: sub-install-pm588 but it is not  
going to be installed
                           Depends: text-template-pm but it is not  
going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or  
specify a solution).


I don't understand this, why would it complain about unmet  
dependencies when I want to *remove* a package??
