For some reason installing X no longer installs the input drivers.

fix your package manager.

Do you mean it's a bug in aptitude that it did not install the other
packages?

yes, aptitude sucks, don't use it.  and don't reopen this bug, thanks.

Apt sucks even more in my view so that leaves us with no useful package manager in Debian.

Until that is fixed packages should work with what we have.

xserver-xorg does not have a separate dependency on keyboard driver and mouse driver, it only depends in input-2 which is provided by any input driver. Since the vmmouse driver is broken and provides input-2 it leaves me with no input at all.

PS. Please don't close bugs until they are fixed or a good reason is found why the cannot be fixed.

Thanks
