Similar things used to happen to me with Debian after an apt-get
dist-upgrade. *** Broken fucking packages ***...

To prevent this, I switched to Slackware whose package manager doesn't
handle dependencies. I'm fine since.

Swaret, slapt-get and the likes remind me of a French expression: "chercher
la merde". Looks like you found it.

Believe me: you're better off checking dependencies manually. It's not that
hard, and you always have things under control.
