Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: minor

I wanted to make a dist-upgrade just now and the problem solver wants
to remove frozen-bubble instead of resolving its changed dependencies:

Since frozen-bubble stands higher in the hirachy of dependencies (it
depends on frozen-bubble-lib) apt-get should keep it and resolve its
new dependencies, even though that means removing an old and
installing a new deb instead of just removing one.

Er no, that isn't always true.

I think this is probably just one of those cases that can't be reasonably
handled automatically.
