Please, send the resolver debug output at least, as it might shed some
light. Try:

```
-o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=yes
```

At any rate, it literally depends on a single package, libc6, therefore it
should not remove xserver-org (and I haven't spotted such a peculiarity
myself).

Apparently the apt resolver made an unsolicited and ugly decision.

But it's difficult to guess without knowing exactly what's the apt
state and configuration, where's the issue. Try to provide more info.


apt configuration is out of the box except the sources.list:

---
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main non-free contrib
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main non-free contrib

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-updates main contrib non-free

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian buster-backports main contrib non-free

deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main 
contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/debian-security buster/updates main 
contrib non-free



So nothing special there. What more info you need?


libglvnd0/buster-backports should depend on libc6 only.


I'm not sure if this is your suggestion, because that's exactly how it
is.


These are maybe more just thinking aloud.


And there is no
xserver-xorg/buster-backports available.


That's correct. But why did you mention it?


Well one might think that if new libglvnd0 is backward incompatible with 
xserver in the 'main' there should be new one in the 'backport'. Or 
maybe libglvnd0 is 'silently' dependent of such backport package.


Just trying to make sense of obviously bad behavior. An other thought 
was whether this has something to do with Wayland.

xserver-xorg/buster-backports available.
