the very basic assumption (and requirement) that any package can be installed 
and removed cleanly, spelled out in 
https://release.debian.org/jessie/rc_policy.txt and there 5a: 

        Packages in the archive must not be so buggy or out of date that we
        refuse to support them.

Failing to install is too buggy to support in a stable release according to 
the release team.

while it might be true that it doesn't affect the operation, this is also 
irrelevant here.


cheers,
