No, it is not essential. There are numerous mechanisms already available to users to either correct or deal with broken packages. Ultimately, it is not reasonable to expect a package management system to be able to correctly manage broken packages. I believe that --force options are ultimate a cop-out; they fail to deal with the real, underlying issues. Cheers, -- Shawn Walker
