xserver-xorg-video-nouveau removes xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse and others



Hello,

I am wondering why upgrading xserver-xorg-video-nouveau removes the keyboard 
and mouse input modules xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-mouse. Are 
they not needed anymore with the new version of xorg?

Do you want to continue [Y/n]?
