Did you figure out what prompted the issue? apt-get and aptitude (which
is to be preferred these days) rarely mess up badly if the packages are
in reasonable shape. Although both do tell you what they intend to do
and ask for confirmation by default.

I've had a couple of similar issues, almost always including packages
from third party repositories, or when tracking Debian Unstable or
Debian testing.
