I had this happen a couple of days ago on unstable with abiword, which
got deleted by wajig. The error message said that the failure to
reinstall abiword was a dependency on libenchant2. I made a bug report
and the maintainer told me to do "apt-get install abiword libenchant2".
This fixed the problem except that I had to install another package as
well (can't remember which).
