yes, the link setup in the xserver-xfree86.postinst is wrong. it should be: ln -sf "$this_server" /etc/X11/X not ln -sf /etc/X11/X "$this_server" also, the link is not deleted when the xserver package is removed. shouldn't this link be handled by the xserver-common package? but i don't think this link should be there in the first place (as we seem to have a wrapper in /usr/X11R6/bin/X). i am sure branden knows the answer. --alex-- -- | I believe the moment is at hand when, by a paranoiac and active | | advance of the mind, it will be possible (simultaneously with | | automatism and other passive states) to systematize confusion | | and thus to help to discredit completely the world of reality. |
