a simple "apt-get install foo" will report you, which packages will be
remove, new installed and upgraded and ask for permission. Only when foo
ist the only package which will be installed, it starts immediately.
If you use unstable it's normal that sometimes the dependencies don't
match correctly and apt is unsure what to do.
If you didn't like it, use stable ;-)
