Well, that's probably the very nature of the bug:  There's a dependency
which is silently fullfilled on an unstable system, but not on etch due
to a missing versioned Depends.

In order to reproduce it in a chroot, I need to set it up with X
access.  I've done that once in my static chroot, but I can't remember
how to do it.  Is there a HOWTO somewhere?
