I'm wondering if this is similar to the problem that is described in
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/09/msg00090.html
Certainly the pattern of dependency/pre-dependency seems similar...
What happened was this:
I had installed ntpdate, ntp-simple and ntp packages at the 4.2.0a
+stable-2sarge1 revision level. When the "dfsg" revision of these
packages came along, instead of updating those packages, the result
of an "aptitude upgrade" was to delete the ntp* packages entirely. I
got out of the problem by re-installing the ntp* packages, which got
me to the dfsg versions.
I plan to do a non-network install (dvd-only) of the beta3 dvd (which
should get me to the condition I was in before the problems) then add
a network repo to sources.list (which should attempt to update to the
dfsg versions) and see what happens.
