Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt

when I mark apt 0.6.46.4ubuntu7 for upgrade to version 0.6.46.4ubuntu8 packages like ubuntu-minimal and kubuntu-desktop are marked to be removed. Also all adept packages and synaptic are marked to be removed.
I don't think it is a good idea to remove these basic packages or do I miss something?

I confirm this bug.
adept-installer and some others adept packages depends on libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6-3.52 which is a virtual package, but apt 0.6.46.4ubuntu8 provided libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6-3.53, so there's broken dependencies.
I didn't mark this bug as confirmed because this issue should be solved with further upgrades.

Same here

apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
requires adept, requires adept-*, requires libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6-3.52.

libapt-pkg-libc6.4-6-3.53 is installed by apt

this problem is not resolved. I removed the existing packages and reinstalled them. It still crashes with the following backtrace:
