"apt-get dist-upgrade" today for natty wants to newly install firefox (amongst many other packages) on a server with command line only. It makes no sense to require firefox on a server with no gui.

Looking at the upgrades and then their dependencies, it looks to me like the cause of this is a new dependency on firefox-locale-en for language-pack-en-base 1:11.04+20110607.

I know I can work around this by just doing "apt-get upgrade" instead which is fine for a short while but it will increase the work in keeping my servers up to date and, imho, will rule out a future release upgrade.
