I am running Sid as well, and I see nothing in the details of the
nagios-common package that would make it remove those packages. In fact, I
just tried installing it myself, and while it will install additional
packages, it is not going to removing anything.
Are you using any unofficial Debian repositories? Can you post the command
you used to install nagios-common (and its full output)?
