There's no such thing as a pure-unstable setting. Package upgrades
can come in an unpredictable order, that depends on the architecture,
the mirror and so on. Similarly, some packages may be held for various
reasons. Dependencies should ensure that the system is consistent (as
long as one doesn't downgrade or install non-official packages or
packages from experimental). Otherwise this is a bug.
