Sounds like pkgin needs to be more robust. Which is probably a good

Agreed, but what I was pointing out is that while this behaviour is wrong from
a user perspective, it is 100% accurate from a dependencies point of view,
which pkgin assume are always correct (at some point it should rely on
something...).

Anyway I'll try to figure out how to prevent this from happening without
breaking the overall dependency logic.
