[Bug 95047] pkg removal results in non working system

[sammiam]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: adept

I had performed an upgrade.  CUPS was upgraded, which resulted in my
printer no longer working.  I had had this problem before, and doing a
complete rebuild, took care of the problem.  This time instead of doing
a complete rebuild, I tried to remove cups, hoping to re-install it.
What ended up happending was that when cups was removed, it also removed
KDE, EVOLUTION, and many other unrelated packages, resulting in a non-
working system.  Luckily I had my system backed up, and was able to
restore it.
