Package: nvidia-glx
Version: 275.09.07-1
Severity: important

I can't quite figure this one out, but it seems the current version of nvidia-glx is incompatible with the current version of libgl1-nvidia-glx in Wheezy.

Output of apt-get install nvidia-glx:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 nvidia-glx : Depends: libgl1-nvidia-glx (= 275.09.07-1)
E: Broken package

Output of apt-get install libgl1-nvidia-glx:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libgl1-nvidia-glx : Depends: libgl1-nvidia-alternatives but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

Trying to install libgl1-nvidia-alternatives removes most X-related packages, which I certainly don't want! aptitude why-not nvidia-glx shows the following:
i   xorg              Depends   libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1
p   libgl1-mesa-swx11 Provides  libgl1                  
p   libgl1-mesa-swx11 Conflicts nvidia-glx

What is the issue here?
