-f, --fix-broken
Fix; attempt to correct a system with broken dependencies
in place. This option, when used with install/remove, can
omit any packages to permit APT to deduce a likely
solution. If packages are specified, these have to
completely correct the problem. The option is sometimes
necessary when running APT for the first time; APT itself
does not allow broken package dependencies to exist on a
system.
So I don't see how you could get into this situation unless perhaps
your debootstrap configuration gets into a broken dependency situation somehow.
IIRC, apt-get -f install can decide to *remove* arbitrary packages as necessary
to get to a sane dependency tree. So I'm very dubious about doing it by default.
