Thanks again for the info. However, I can’t remember when I ever had to ‘fix dependency problems’ with APT. Maybe when I ran Debian Testing for a while, or if I added one too many external repos, or if I really really wanted to run two explicitly conflicting packages — but still it’s such a foreign thing that I can’t recall if it actually ever occurred. Apparently APT’s reputation for most solid dependency resolution among package managers is quite well deserved.
