Debian stable shouldn't have packages gained and lost this way. So I
suspect there is something already amiss.

Try using "aptitude" see if it produces a better solution.

Run "aptitude update" first to make sure you aren't just missing some
packages.

Otherwise make it explain why it is removing these, presumably epiphany
depends on the wrong version of libc, most likely explanation it was
never fully upgraded to the Lenny version, or libc is from the wrong
archive.
