last ones being some automatical uninstallations (not many, though).
Shouldn't all this be done in one run?
Are you sure all the packages are installing successfully? Typically
this sort of symptom is due to package postinsts that break the first
time and succeed later times (e.g., because of dependencies that aren't
declared).
It's different from the common case that a package's configuration
fails. In this case, apt/aptitude would also clearly state this.
But here, there were several groups of packages to be installed after
the first run. Each group consisting of 1-5 packages without
installation/upgrade problems.
What should I look for during the next upgrades for debugging purposes?
