Packages no longer marked for automatic removal

[Hernando Torque]

Binary package hint: apt

Unneeded dependencies can no longer be removed by using 'apt-get autoremove' and they also don't show up in Synaptic anymore.

To reproduce:
* Boot a daily live image,
* Install the package smartmontools (this will install bsd-mailx, postfix, and smartmontools),
* 'apt-get remove smartmontools' => this will remove smartmontools without any notice about bsd-mailx and postfix being no longer needed.

Here's the output I'm expecting (eg. from Lucid or Maverick Alpha 2):

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get remove smartmontools
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  postfix bsd-mailx
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  smartmontools
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 273 not upgraded.
After this operation, 823kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
