Package: xserver-xorg Version: 6.8.99.901.dfsg.1-2 Severity: serious The xserver-xorg package in experimental can't be installed on a system where nvidia-glx is also installed: # dpkg -i ../xserver-xorg_6.8.99.901.dfsg.1-2.1_i386.deb (Reading database ... 126792 files and directories currently installed.)

While you're at it, this: Package: xdmx Version: 6.8.99.901.dfsg.1-2.1 Section: x11 Priority: optional Architecture: i386 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.5-1), libfreetype6 (>= 2.1.5-1), libice6, libsm6, libxau6, libxaw8, libxdmcp6, libxext6, libxi6, libxmu6, libxp6, libxpm4, libxrender1 (>> 1:0.9.0-1), libxt6, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.1) Conflicts: xserver-xorg (<= 6.8.1-0.2) Replaces: xserver-xorg (<= 6.8.1-0.2) should almost certainly be a Replaces *without* a Conflicts. The Conflicts is only warranted if replacing the corresponding files from xserver-xorg causes xserver-xorg to not work correctly in some way. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
