It's always an option in my own playbook. It's a last resort one, but still an option. I go the additional step to secondarily purge any dependencies that *might* suddenly become orphaned during a remove/uninstall. Apt-get is friendly about sharing those. Newly orphaned packages will be offered up as part of the feedback for a command such as "apt-get upgrade". I don't how other package managers handle the same. That extra step is worth it to me because maybe the problem is with a dependency package and not necessarily the primary desired one.
