Sometimes it's also using "present" while it probably also means unpacked. For
instance:
some packages may
not be able to rely on their dependencies being present when being
installed or removed
You also didn't change that installed it seems?
There is also:
The `Depends' field should also be used if the `postinst',
`prerm' or `postrm' scripts require the package to be present in
order to run. Note, however, that the `postrm' cannot rely on
any non-essential packages to be present during the `purge'
phase.
