The point of ubuntu-desktop (and the like) is precisely to assert a
default set of packages which we tested and are officially supported.
Thus, ubuntu-minimal is *meant* to be removed if you replace one of its
dependencies with an alternative.
If you think that syslog-ng would serve as a better
apt says: This package depends on all of the packages in the Ubuntu

I see what you mean. An upgrade could examine the dependency differences
between the old and new ubuntu-meta packages and do those changes even
if they are not installed any more. Reopening as a wishlist bug against

I hope that ubuntu-minimal be fixed to
