Title:
  apt has package conflicts whenever I attempt to install gcc and gcc-
  guile in one line using apt install

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
  Release:	18.04

  apt:
    Installed: 1.6.12
    Candidate: 1.6.12
    Version table:
   *** 1.6.12 500
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-updates/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       1.6.6ubuntu0.1 500
          500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security/main amd64 Packages
       1.6.1 500
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages

  Expected Results:
  apt should have installed gcc first and then gcc-guile, instead of reporting package inconsistency because installing gcc via apt and then guile had no issues for me.

  Actual Results:
  apt reports a package error and that packages may be broken.
