[SLUG] Debian apt-get solves dependancies what am I missing

I always heard how wonderful apt-get was at resolving dependancies. But
I'm not seeing that.
I'm trying to do
apt-get upgrade
and I get the following message:
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  amanda-server: Depends: amanda-common (= 1:2.4.3-1) but 1:2.4.4-1 is
installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try using -f.

Why doesn't apt-get get the 1:2.4.4-1 version of amanda-common?
Since I don't need amanda-server, can I remove amanda-common or not have
apt-get upgrade the amanda server? Forcing something always make me
nervious.
