You have problems with endless loops because you do not check for already seen packages and deborphan fixes this for you in a proper way so that there is no need to run deborphan in a loop. You could replace the whole loop with "apt-get remove `deborphan --recursive`". I hope this clarifies this (the need to clarify is implied by your answer).
