Bug Description

I tried to remove fglrx and rebuild xserver-xorg since fglrx results in boot loop with kernel 26 on 15.04. I got into root prompt on recovery mode and ran apt-get remove --purge fglxr* and xserver-xorg. I then ran apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core, libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 and :amd64, libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 and :amd64 and xserver-xorg. I then ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and reboot

When 15.04 started up, I got this error message about fglrx-core not installed which I expected since I removed it, however the mesa graphics were not installed.
