Now, I get why the elinks package is scheduled to be removed. The dependency
must be wrong for elinks-data package as follows. The dependency says
elinks-data package conflicts with elinks and elinks-lite.
Package: elinks-data
State: installed
Automatically installed: yes
Version: 0.12~pre5-1
Priority: optional
Section: web
Maintainer: Y Giridhar Appaji Nag <appaji@debian.org>
Uncompressed Size: 1,978k
Recommends: elinks (= 0.12~pre5-1)
Conflicts: elinks (< 0.11.3-1), elinks-lite
Replaces: elinks (< 0.11.3-1)
