I've had trouble with this very problem in November when upgrading one of
my machines to hamm (fortunatly, it was not 100kms away ;). Needless to
say I'm in favor of adding this pre-dependency. (pre-)dependencies are
used so it avoids your system to break when you upgrade it, and in this
case the upgrade fails, so a pre-dependence is definatly needed.
