I have Ubuntu 8.10 beta installed and while doing dist-upgrade today, I noticed it removed xorg-xserver-input-all (as well as evdev and synaptic). That made impossible to login to the system via gdm. Installing this 3 packages fixes the problem with not being able to input anything, but looks like gnome is broken. |

I also noticed that dist-upgrade hanged at "cleaning up" stage before system was broken. Tested on 1 desktop and 1 notebook.

Bumping importance - it seems a lot of people are hitting this - on IRC as well. |

I'm dropping the release-critical task for this. While it's certainly true that this removal can occur, that happens only when things are in flux for brief periods during development. That's not an issue currently, and won't affect the release. Also, it's sort of an outcome of how the infrastructure works, not an xorg bug in particular, so may be worth refiling to a different package, although I'm not sure what.

This is basically fixed for good, because xserver-xorg depends on -evdev as well as on -input-all. So it should not be possible to get in the situation where -evdev would be removed. Not without force anyway... |
