1. Read release note to find out if this is
   documnted or not.  (maybe not)

2.  If this is package buggy, work around it.

  http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-reference/ch02.en.html#_fixing_broken_packag

Doing this requires you to know system well.  So read not only above
section bual the whole chapter at least.

3. If this does not work, backup your system and make fresh install.
