[... snip: similar errors for other X packages ...]

Do you have any package pins in /etc/apt/preferences which give a high
priority to the old XFree86 packages? It looks like your apt thinks it
has to install those instead of the new ones for Xorg.

Are there any other high-priority packages installed which explicitly
depend on XFree86?
