Please post the full output of 'apt-get dist-upgrade' here, otherwise we
can only guess.

I waited a few days and did an apt-get update and dist-upgrade and the manually installed packages that were previously a problem were no longer going to be removed. So the problem is solved but I do not know why apt ignored my manual selections at the time?
