Same problem here.
I'm trying to replace xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd with
xserver-xorg-video-radeon:
# aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-radeon
The following NEW packages will be installed:
xserver-xorg-video-radeon{b}
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/657 kB of archives. After unpacking 1,507 kB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xserver-xorg-core: Breaks: xserver-xorg-video-6 which is a virtual
package.
xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Depends: xorg-video-abi-6.0 which is a
virtual package.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

I want to resolve dependencies, but no dependency resolver was
created.The following NEW packages will be installed:
xserver-xorg-video-radeon
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0 B/665 kB of archives. After unpacking 1,520 kB will be used.
aptitude failed to find a solution to these dependencies. You can solve
them yourself by hand or type 'n' to quit.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
xserver-xorg-core: Breaks: xserver-xorg-video-6 which is a virtual
package.
Resolve these dependencies by hand? [N/+/-/_/:/?]
Abort.
So far so good.
But if I start aptitude with ncurses and do the following:
mark xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd to get removed
mark xserver-xorg-video-radeon to get installed
switch to dependency resolve mode (pressing e)
choose alternative number 2 (install xserver-xorg-video-radeon)
submitting my choice by pressing "!" aptitude crashes with this error:
Uncaught exception: ../../src/ui.cc:1389: void auto_fix_broken():
Assertion "resman->resolver_exists()" failed.
sometimes I have to press "g" to make it crash tough.
Well, I just figured out that this happens as well if I don't mark
xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd to get removed before.
