Bug Description
Trying to install the "firejail" package on a fresh system install (Xubuntu 18.04.3) wants to remove the following packages:
> The following packages will be REMOVED:
> xorg xserver-
I have a bad feeling about this, but couldn't find any information why that is so.
Aptitude gives more information, but I honestly don't understand these unmet dependencies/
If I'd install it, it seems to mark quite vital packages to be autoremoved (see below).
I've tried apt, aptitude and synaptic.
This seems odd.
If anyone has any information on why that is so and if that is okay, I'd be very grateful. Because now I'm not daring to install firejail, so might this even qualify as "security vulnerability"? ;)
Thank you very much in advance!

Are you sure it's related to firejail? In your output I don't see firejail mentioned, only xorg-related packages.
firejail does not have any xorg dependency (only recommmendation on either xpra, xeyhr or xvfb).
