Bug Description
Binary package hint: apt
When installing syslog-ng, apt removes syslog and ubuntu-minimal. A subsequent apt-get autoremove tries to remove upstart, which has priority required. I believe apt-get autoremove should not by default autoremove required packages.

I confirm this, it removed upstart in my system and had to chroot it using live cd to install it again.
