Package: apt
Version: 0.9.8.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
When trying to update wine to the latest version, I encounter the following:
$ sudo apt-get install wine1.5-i386 libpulse0=3.0-1
.. . .
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 wine1.5-i386 : Depends: libpulse0 (>= 1:0.99.1) but 3.0-1 is to be installed
.. . .
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

$ apt-get --version
apt 0.9.8.1 for i386 compiled on May 16 2013 14:01:48
