Well, I at least know how to work around it.  What's going wrong is that the
recommend is being processed, apt tries to satisfy the recommend by removing
other packages, can't actually make it work, so doesn't install the
recommends - but has already marked some conflicting packages for removal.

But this problem is not reproducible at all for me; I would expect it to be
more consistent.
