Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6
Severity: important
When upgrading, x-window-system-core had an unmet dependency on
xserver-xorg, which failed during preconfigure. pre-inst (not post-inst)
exited with an exit status of 64.
I emptied /usr/X11R6/bin of the three remaining files.
Same error.
> apt-get -f install
Same error.
> apt-get remove x-window-system-core
and all was well. I was surprised because apparently nothing was
dependent upon it.
