Heh. Funny one :). What happens is that one of the letters in
"force-depend" is a command that is handled by dpkg-deb. So what dpkg
does it invoke dpkg-deb with all the other options, including the -i.
And dpkg-deb doesn't know about -i and rightfully gives an error.

Still something that should be fixed though..
