Circular dependency of debianutils and coreutils

[Joern.Sesterhenn@t-online.de (jls)]

Hi,

I have installed a basic Hurd system and wanted to fetch files via net using 
apt. An error popped up wich I boiled down to an unmet dependency

apt-get upgrade debianutils
debianutils: PreDepends coreutils (>=4.5.8-1) but 4.5.3-1 is installed.


trying 

apt-get upgrade coreutils
resulted in the same message:
debianutils: PreDepends coreutils (>=4.5.8-1) but 4.5.3-1 is installed.


The alternative apt offers is to remove debianutils and gzip which I better 
did not try. I could not find the approprate coreutils package, to try 
installing it via dpkg.

Any suggestion what to do?
