Update all the packages that depend on a particular package



Conside the following example

The dependencies on privoxy are given by

$apt-cache depends privoxy
privoxy
  Depends: libc6
  Depends: libpcre3
  Depends: logrotate
  Depends: adduser
  Recommends: doc-base

Now whenever I am upgrading privoxy, I would like apt-get (or aptitude or 
whatever other software) to check if there any newer versions of the 
dependencies and update those as well. Is this possible? If so, How?

thanks
raju
