Sorry, I have replied to some old e-mail by accident. Apparently I am
too tired to use e-mails today.
But I got some broken dependencies today which fitted exactly the scenario.

When I cannot install new package, because package manager complains to
run "apt-get -f install", then it should not be a usual situation.

And it is the first time when this is so serious - tens of packages seem
broken.

Note also that the archive is automatically scanned for problems like this,
because they can be detected by analyzing the dependencies.

This can also be caused by packages which are still building, or waiting to
build, on some architectures, and other normal processes.

I've been getting these messages for weeks now, so I'll file a bug
report. Thanks.

Broken dependencies are quite usual in development releases.
e.g.
package A gets updated and now has new dependencies (higher versions or even
new dependencies that have not been there before) on B.
Now B needs an update, too.
In the meantime you´ll get a "BROKEN" A.
Since developers only can work serial on packages these things get usually
(from my experience) sorted out in a short days.

But maybe there is new and difficult problem rising with B during preparing
the update so it will take maybe a week or so.

Personally i monitor such things very closely. ;)
But i would fill in bug only when i get the feeling there had something been
forgotten.
