Bug#46044: apt shouldn't do anything to any package, if -d is used.
Package: apt
Version: 0.3.13
Severity: normal
Hi,
X is a new package that I want to look at.
Y is an installed package that conflicts with X.
I think "apt-get -d install X" shouldn't warn removing Y, though it's made to
download X that WOULD conflict with Y if X was really installed. Currently apt
yells it's going to REMOVE package Y, though it never removes it, which is
correct of course.
