[Bug 712640] Re: package xserver-xorg-core 2:1.9.0.902-1ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: installing xserver-xorg-core would break existing software

 

Generally this happens only when there is non-standard software that has
been installed which does not support the new xserver and thus blocks
the upgrade.

What does `ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d' show?

Have you installed something like virtualbox?

** Description changed:

  since few days it isn't possible to complete the system upgrade due to
  problems with the xserver-xorg-core package !!! Problem reported after
  executing apt-get -f dist-upgrade
