Ci sarebbe questo (ho dato un'occhiata fugace alla man page):

       reinst-required
              A package  marked  reinst-required  is  broken  and
              requires  reinstallation.  These packages cannot be
              removed, unless forced  with  option  --force-rein­
              streq.

       --force-things | --no-force-things | --refuse-things

              Force  or refuse (no-force and refuse mean the same
              thing) to do some things.  things is a comma  sepa­
              rated list of things specified below.  --force-help
              displays a message describing them.  Things  marked
              with (*) are forced by default.

dove per force-thing potresti usare

              remove-reinstreq: Remove a package,  even  if  it's
              broken  and marked to require reinstallation.  This
              may, for example, cause parts  of  the  package  to
              remain  on the system, which will then be forgotten
              by dpkg.

ma io non l'ho mai usato per cui prendilo con le pinze, eh..
