Those will be packages with priority standard and up.

Scroll down to it in the conflict resolution screen? There should be
information there that tells you what each package's dependencies are
like.
Anyway, if you're pointing at unstable and trying to upgrade Qt then
you're also going to be upgrading to XFree86 4, since the Qt there
depends on the new X libraries. xfonts-100dpi depends on xutils and
conflicts with the older xbase-clients package from XFree86 3, so you'll
need to sort that out.
