Hi,

I've been using the Quantal LTS backports for the newer kernel for awhile
now. About a week ago, an updated xorg and xorg-server package was
released. I wan unable to install it via the Update Manager nor terminal. I
figured maybe some other related packages weren't built yet so I waited and
waited.

Still today, I cannot upgrade xorg or xorg-server. In terminal, I tried
apt-get upgrade but the packages are held back. I've tried apt-get
dist-upgrade and the packages are still held back. I tried to outright run
apt-get install xorg xorg-server and I get the following error message:

Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 xserver-xorg : Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.11) but it is not going
to be installed
                Depends: xserver-xorg-video-all (>= 0~) but it is not going
to be installed or
                         xorg-driver-video
                Depends: xserver-xorg-input-all (>= 0~) but it is not going
to be installed or
                         xorg-driver-input
                Depends: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (>= 0~) but it is not
going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.


Any advice on how to fix this?

Thank you for your time.
