Source: xorg
Version: 1:7.7+18
Severity: serious

With virtualbox-dkms gone for stretch, trying to install GNOME inside
Virtualbox will lead to gdm failing to start, as it tries to run Xorg as
unprivileged user. This requires a KMS compatible driver though.
Same is true for users of startx. They need the suid wrapper provided by
xserver-xorg-legacy in such a case.

Not having the Xorg.wrap suid wrapper is a worthwile goal, but I guess
we are not quite there yet, as there are still to many popular cases
where it's needed.

I would thus like to see xserver-xorg-legacy added as a Recommends to
one of the xorg packages.

This means it would be installed on upgrades and new installations but
users with a KMS compatible driver can uninstall it.
