Hi, I was thinking about installing xfree4.0.1 on my debian system, but then I started worrying about how it would interfere with the debian package management.
For instance, say I just install XF4, overwriting all the older stuff that debian has put there. What will happen when debian thinks it should `upgrade' to a newer version? Will it overwrite my files? Or what if I would deselect xfree-common? Will I have problems with depencies? (Yes, probably!) So, what's the right way to persue this? As I said in the subject, I don't think this is xfree-related, it's just about installing a newer version of some debian package for which debian has lots of dependencies. (And making them live in harmony.) regards, Richard
