This has nothing to do with dpkg or apt-get.  apt-get simply looks at
dependencies.

Although it's strange that removing mysql would remove all this stuff.
Someone needs to investigate.

[Star Liu]

Package: apt-get
Version: dpkg
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software

I wanted to remove mysql-server, so i use this command:
StarLiuLenny64:~# apt-get remove --purge mysql-admin mysql-client-5.0 
mysql-common mysql-gui-tools-common mysql-query-browser mysql-server-5.0

then it says:
