I'm upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 of Mythbuntu and encountering the same error. The following workaround did it for me (based on the suggestions above):

 dpkg --force-depends --remove x11-xkb-utils // this may or may not be necessary
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xorg/x11-common_7.5+6ubuntu3_all.deb
 dpkg -i x11-common_7.5+6ubuntu3_all.deb

And then the upgrade proceeded without error.

My dist-upgrade and dpkg/status log files (prior to applying above workaround) is attached in the hopes it'll help in finding the source of this problem.
