Once n-w-gnome was removed, network-manager itself became "unnecessary". You can probably reinstall network-manager, but you won't have the gnome piece to manage it. You'll probably still automatically connect to your wireless network, though. I had the same issue yesterday, but caught it, and put gnome-system-tools and gnome-network admin on hold, and kept n-m-gnome, etc. Although I usually use Update Manager, whenever it tells me it needs to do a "Smart Upgrade", I close it and proceed with aptitude, because sometimes the "smart" upgrade isn't so smart, and aptitude always tells me exactly what's going on.
