Bug#517848: nautilus: version conflicts - Nautilus doesn't install

Seeing the same problem on two systems, both are using the unstable
repository, and have been using unstable for a long time. Not sure, but
this may have started when Debian 5.0 was released and squeese became unstable?

Note, how nautilus 2.20.0-7 is reported to depend on libeel2-2.20, which
supposedly is not going to be installed, but it is *already* installed!

This problem with nautilus also prevents gnome and
gnome-desktop-environment from installing, so is quite serious. What I find
really frustrating is that the Update Manager sometimes uninstalls
important packages like gnome without alerting users properly. It should
simply refuse to perform an upgrade until problems like this are resolved.
This is not a nautilus issue, of course.

Thanks,

Joachim
