Bug#3994: ae won't deinstall

[branderh@iaehv.nl (Erick Branderhorst)]

> I'd like to be able to remove `ae', but it won't deinstall.

I can do it: dpkg --force-remove-essential --remove ae

> It should be possible to remove ANY package if I really want to.

But you have to do a little extra for it.

> I don't like it when I'm treated like a child by the packaging system.

You aren't, it is assumed that you have more cynapsis running than a
child to come with something like --force-remove-essential (:-), but
I presume that you did want to do from dselect and I don't know if that
can be done.
