Wasn't bluntly merging the 'is dependent on by' lists the solution then ?

I happily upgraded avahi in the latest bootable backup in my previous
mail (and made a new backup over it afterwards), and my other bootable
backup is too old : it doesn't have both howl/avahi installed. I also
have non-bootable backups that might have both howl/avahi installed, but
am a little short on spare time now.
I'm confident I'll create a similar situation to test with 'soon' ;-)
