Sounds like the server is out of sync with libraries or something like
that...

I had something similar.
I tried simply installing a new X packge by hand with dpkg; at least
that told me what the problem was (some dependency wasn't fulfilled,
although AFAIK apt should have been capable of handling it itself).
Do you have xserver-common installed. for example? Also try installing
xlib6g by hand. You might even try reverting to dselect for once :-)
