So maybe special-case "base" and "core"? Let's mark those packages "explicitly
installed" (or maybe "essential", but from my past experience with apt-rpm,
that doesn't work too well if you can have more than one version installed,
such as for kernels: you get a scary warning if you remove an old kernel, but
that could probably be fixed in apt (it should warn only if you remove all
versions of the essential package) and yum could get it right right away). But
a package which is not a base/core package nor has been checked explicitly is
by definition "automatically installed for dependencies".
