Package: xserver-xorg-video-abi-23
Version: 23
Severity: grave
Justification: Renders xserver-xorg-video-nvidia uninstallable

I apologize for my previous faulty bug report. It turns out I was mistaken 
about xserver-xorg-core being the problem. 

It's actually xserver-xorg-video-abi which is the problem. Xserver-xorg-abi is 
a dependency of xserver-xorg-video-nvidia and it's not available, as you'll 
notice here: 
https://packages.debian.org/stretch-backports/xserver-xorg-video-nvidia

I apologize for the lack of terminal output. The Debian machine that I'm 
working on doesn't have a GUI at the moment because I haven't been able to get 
the nvidia-driver package installed. I'm actually typing these bug reports on 
my Mac. 

Regards,
        Josh Blagden
