Thanks for the answer. This is indeed what I ended up doing.

Yes, and the sad thing is I knew of this problem with twitter and have changed twitter (= 1.3.50+0m8) to twitter (>= 1.3.50+0m8) in /var/lib/dpkg/status in my previous installation.

I guess I was curious to see what would happen, or if Nokia had fixed the problem, and thought I would have seen some warning before everything got uninstalled.
