I've never seen dpkg itself mess up anything, it seems to have to have a 
package manager feed it bogus info for that.
I've also used aptitude to bail myself out of situations, but I'm not 
convinced that it didn't mess up the system more trying to fix it with 
it's creative dependency checking than if I had just fixed the problem 
that was causing APT to break in the first place.
