Package: xserver-xorg-video-all
Severity: normal
I recently deleted all the xserver-xorg-video packages that weren't
compatible with what hardware I have installed. This included the -all
package. I then went through many cycles of apt-get update, and I still
ended up seeing this huge list of video cards I need to update, and the
re-instalation of the -all package. So, some dependencies are screwed
up.
It looks like a similar thing is happening with the -input side of
things, but since there aren't many input devices, I haven't paid much
attention.

I don't know which xserver-xorg you have, but since 1:7.3+1 it depends
on "all | <onedriver>" and does not recommend "all" anymore. So it
should be fine.
