So, the reason is that xserver-xorg-video-{nv,v4l} do not exist any
more, and thus it can't get rid of the "xserver-xorg-video-6" provides.
For that we need to explicitly conflict to these two to clean these up
on upgrade. I propose that -nouveau conflicts: -nv, and -vesa Conflicts:
-v4l. Adding them to -video-all also works, but that wouldn't fix the
upgrade for people who removed -video-all and only have a few drivers
installed.

These two extra Conflicts: will fix the upgrade when universe is
enabled. If only main and restricted are enabled, the upgrade still
fails because a bunch of the older drivers went to universe. I still
need to think about/discuss what to do there.
