After some testing, I found out that you also need to pass `--no-install-recommends`, as otherwise `Recommends: libreoffice-core (>> 1:7.0.0~rc1)` in libreoffice-l10n-ru prevents it from upgrading.

Anyway, upgrading any subset of packages, if permitted by dependencies, should not produce any errors. To test that this is indeed the case, I suggest running `apt-get --no-install-recommends install $pkg` in a test environment for every package to test the upgrade of that package in isolation (so that only the package and the packages that are strictly required to satisfy dependencies are upgraded).
