Package: apt
Version: 1.0.1ubuntu2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

   when trying to install a package with 'apt-get install' when I didn't
know the package name exactly, it suggested to remove my core desktop packages.
When I gave in the exact package name, it didn't show this behaviour:

me@laptop:/home/me/dat/Downloads >sudo apt-get install apache2.2
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'apache2.2-bin' for regex 'apache2.2'
Note, selecting 'apache2.2-common' for regex 'apache2.2'
The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required:
  libmkv0
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove it.
The following extra packages will be installed:
  apache2-bin libapr1 libaprutil1 libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 libaprutil1-ldap
Suggested packages:
  apache2-doc apache2-suexec-pristine apache2-suexec-custom
The following packages will be REMOVED:                                         <============================!

The "problem" is that apache2.2-bin has a versioned Breaks relation on
gnome-user-share, so this installation was probably at a time were
a newer version not conflicting with apache2.2-bin wasn't available yet,
so the only alternative was to remove it. APT just acted on what it was
told, no bug, and hence closing.

> me@laptop:/home/me/dat/Downloads >sudo apt-get install apache2

Note that apache2 isn't apache2.2. If you install only apache2,
obviously the needs of apache2.2 do not apply.
