Public bug reported:

Having run apt-get update, apt-get upgrade this morning, part of the
package process removed unity and compiz from the system, I think due to
broken dependencies:

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 unity : Depends: compiz but it is not going to be installed
         Depends: compiz-core-abiversion-20120216 but it is not installable
         Depends: libnux-abiversion-20120212.01 but it is not installable
         Depends: compiz-plugins-main-default but it is not going to be installed
         Recommends: unity-lens-video but it is not going to be installed
         Recommends: indicator-printers but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Clearly this shouldn't happen (removing the core GUI elements from the
system). Could this be resolved?
