Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt

When I uninstall a program, I type "sudo apt-get --purge autopremove program"
I noticed that apt-get autoremove does not remove dependencies of the package and the package, but only the package; I try with vlc and I attach the output (italian language).
This is my version of apt:
mauro@ubuntuMM:~$ apt-cache policy apt
apt:
  Installato: 0.8.0ubuntu1
  Candidato: 0.8.0ubuntu1
  Tabella versione:
 *** 0.8.0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
