Please locate your xutils .deb (if you use apt, it is probably in /var/cache/apt/archives/xutils_4.0.1-12_i386.deb), and run dpkg-deb -c on it, like this: dpkg-deb -c dpkg-deb -c xutils_4.0.1-12_i386.deb Do you have the following line? lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2000-12-12 11:44:58 ./usr/bin/rstartd -> ../X11R6/bin/rstartd If not, we have a very strange problem, since the version I uploaded definitely has it (I just checked). If so, then we have a bug in dpkg. Please reply to the debian-x mailing list so everyone can follow along. -- G.
