Most of redmine dependencies ship files under /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby.

Which means when those packages activate the trigger, they get put in
triggers-awaited, which does not satisfy dependencies, and then
redmine cannot be configured or its triggers processed. The depending
packages cannot get out of triggers-awaited until the pending trigger
in redmine is processed. Thus the cycle. Hope this clarifies.
