That is, you type "apt-get install -f" and it says "I would like to remove touchegg. Is this OK?" (well, words to that effect). Try saying "N" at that point and see if apt-get will present a different alternative. Removing 1 package is probably the simplest solution, so apt-get is presenting that as it's first choice of action. However, if you say no, it may find that another way to fix the brokenness is, say, to add 2 packages and downgrade a third. Keep saying No until you find a solution that you approve of or apt-get runs out of options.
