What's so confusing about it? On the first level, mplayerplug-in wants |
| 17 |
to be installed. But that requires mozilla-firefox, whihc in turn |
| 18 |
requires mozilla-launcher. |

It's read from left to right and from top to bottom. |

But packages will be merged in ASCENDING order, that is from |
| 23 |
bottom to top. So, first mozilla-launcher will be installed, |
| 24 |
and then mozilla-firefox. This is of course logical, as firefox |
| 25 |
cannot be installed without mozilla-launcher. |
