Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.10
Severity: important

I am a Testing user. One of my machines is upgraded. A couple days later and I try to upgrade another with the gcc5 transition,
and apt is broken. "apt-get dist-upgrade" wants to remove 254 packages and "apt-get install apt" wants to remove 121 packages.
