[Bug 499752] [NEW] virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 is uninstallable

[Matthew East]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose

Installing virtualbox-ose-guest-x11 fails with this message:

mdke at mdke-vbox:~$ sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-guest-x11
[sudo] password for mdke:

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.
  virtualbox-ose-guest-x11: Depends: xserver-xorg-core (>= 2:1.6.2) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

This seems to be similar, although not identical, to bug 495935. The
bugs may have the same cause.
