Bug Description
Binary package hint: aptitude
Suppose package A is manually installed and depends on packages B|C, which are both automatically installed. Currently, this will keep both B and C installed, although only one of them is needed.
Aptitude should point out such situations to the user, so he can manually delete one of the superfluous packages.
