dpkg dependency problems not removing

When removing a package, I got the following error message

root@82-165-118-245:/~# dpkg --remove psa-phpmyadmin
dpkg: dependency problems prevent removal of psa-phpmyadmin:
 plesk-core depends on psa-phpmyadmin (>= 5.1.1); however:
  Package psa-phpmyadmin is to be removed.

dpkg: error processing package psa-phpmyadmin (--remove):
 dependency problems - not removing
Errors were encountered while processing:
 psa-phpmyadmin
root@82-165-118-245:/~# 

It is fixed by specifying –ignore-depends=plesk-core in apt command.

Example

root@82-165-118-245:/~# dpkg --remove --ignore-depends=plesk-core psa-phpmyadmin
