Hey Florian,

Thank you very much for your help!

I reloaded xserver-xorg-core and the SecurityPolicy file is in its place now. both dpkg --purge --force-depends xfonts-base and give me the warning of " warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc does not exist or is not a directory".

Therefore startx give me the error of below: 

$---------------------error begin------------------------------$
  xkb_keycodes             { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)" };
    xkb_types                { include "complete" };
    xkb_compatibility        { include "complete" };
    xkb_symbols              { include "pc(pc105)+us" };
    xkb_geometry             { include "pc(pc104)" };
xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): no program named "xterm" in PATH

Specify a program on the command line or make sure that /usr/bin is in your path.

FreeFontPath: FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, should be 1; fixing. 

$---------------------------------------error
end------------------------------$

The output of the dpkg -l is
