Are all the following going to be removed too? (not clear with the []
parenthesis).

x-window-system and x-window-system-core are virtual dependency
packages so you don't really need them.
xlibmesa-gl and xlibmesa-dri are being replaced by the new package
(which provides xlibmesa-gl iirc).
The dev files are a problem. They depend on specific versions of the
originals which is why they are being removed. They are needed to
compile some things not for standard operation. The main issue IIRC is
that libqt3-mt-dev is needed for make xconfig under 2.6, but you can do
make gconfig instead.
Another option is to open the xlibmesa-gl-dev package and remove the
version dependency in it (problematic but works). IIRC all the other
problematic devs are through a dependency with that one.
