You mean you did "apt-cache unmet"? I get 94 Packages with unmet dependencies (please try "apt-cache unmet" to see why): bbdb bigloo blacs-lam-test camlp4 cjk-latex cocoon communicator-dmotif-408 communicator-smotif-408 cxterm-gb cxterm-jis dbf2msql dbf2mysql dome egon emacs-czech enlightenment erlang-mode explorer fidogate fml fortify freewrl fvwm95 fweb glide2-base gnu-smalltalk gstep-extensions gstep-extensions-dbg gstep-extensions-dev gstep-guile gstep-guile-dev hanterm ibcs2.0.35 kernel-image-2.2.13pre17 langdrill lib-rxtx-java lib-xslp-java libdbd-msql-perl libggi2 libglide2-v3 libguile4-dev librx1-altdev libsensors0 libsrp-dev lm-sensors macgate metro-motif-man navigator-dmotif-408 netscape-base-4 newsflash pcmcia-modules-2.0.35 pcmcia-modules-2.0.36 pcmcia-modules-2.2.1 pcmcia-modules-2.2.10 pcmcia-modules-2.2.12 pcmcia-modules-2.2.13 pcmcia-modules-2.2.5 pcmcia-modules-2.2.7 pcmcia-modules-2.2.9 perspic php3-cgi-msql php3-msql ppxp qmtpssh roxen-ssl rplay-server rxvt-ml sane-gimp1.1 scalapack-doc scwm seyon snmptraplogd stl-manual task-chinese-s task-chinese-t task-objc-dev task-sgml-dev tksmb vchkpw vrweb w3-el-e20 wily wordnet-doc xfonts-intl-european xgmod xirc xpw xsane-gimp1.1 xsiag xsqlmenu yard yiff-utils zmailer zmailer-ssl > Should I file bugs and if so, what type? I think this should be release critical, because those packages are broken (at least those 35 that appear on "apt-cache -i unmet"). But you should look if they have already filed bugs against them.
