@17: I think that's understandable that not giving enough necessary
packages may make apt do wrong decisions. The upgrade is very complex
package dependency wise so apt needs to be given as much information as
possible so that it's able to do the correct upgrade.

I experienced the same with 12.04 LTS point releases, for example I
needed to add that "libglapi-mesa-lts-xxx" at some point or otherwise I
also experienced apt doing misupgrades I think during 12.04.2 -> 12.04.3
HWE stack or so.

As upgrading HWE stack from command line is an advanced operation, I
think the current situation seems good (and documentable, ie just use
the command I gave for example) aside from the "Provides:" problem
making some packages uninstallable after the upgrade.

Bug description:
  In order to upload the new xorg-server we need to backport the following packages from utopic:
  libdrm
  x11proto-core
  x11proto-fonts
  xtrans

  libdrm 2.4.52-1->2.4.56-1 seems to have the following changes:
  - Hides private symbols from all libdrm libraries
  - fixes MSAA on Hawaii (radeon).
  - Adds cherryview pci-ids (intel).
  - Makes libdrm-nouveau threadsafe with concurrent access to the drm fd.
  - Fixes to exynos and freedreno.
  - Enables building libdrm-freedreno1 and libdrm-exynos1

  x11proto-core's main change appears to be changing from the 'pointer' type to 'void *':
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873109/x11proto-core_7.0.24-1_7.0.26-1.diff.gz

  x11proto-fonts' main change is the same as x11proto-core, but the documentation is reformatted too:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873038/x11proto-fonts_2.1.2-1_2.1.3-1.diff.gz

  xtrans seems to have 2 minor changes, increase default unix pipe size and add support for systemd socket activation:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873112/xtrans_1.3.2-1_1.3.4-1.diff.gz

  xorg needs to be slightly updated, to allow xserver-xorg to provide
  the unrenamed lts-utopic, and to allow xorg to be installed with the
  renamed xorg-server.
