Hello Jarno Suni.

If the operation is as you say, that [-f | --fix-broken] only work with install, remove or purge, the manual should be as follows.

[-f] removed from common options [-sqdymubV] and moved to like this:

apt-get [-sqdymubV] [-o= config_string ] [-c= config_file ]
               [-t= target_release] [-a= default_architecture] {update |
               upgrade | dselect-upgrade | dist-upgrade |

               { [ { -f | --fix-broken } ] install pkg [ { =pkg_version_number | /target_release } ] ...
               | remove pkg... | purge pkg... | }

               source pkg [ { =pkg_version_number | /target_release } ] ... |
               build-dep pkg... | check | clean | autoclean | autoremove |
               {-v | --version} | {-h | --help}}

With this [-f] only affects to install, remove and purge, no? And check, clean, autoclean, etc isn't affect. It's an example.

Correct?
