Against the packaging system??? xfree is packaged very well, actually I really like the dbs very much, I only do not understand it well enough to use it for my own packages, but I clone some parts sometime.

Would save me a lot of compilation time... even more OT > With the libraries, you're pretty much bound to wait until they are > packaged. In addition, clients don't depend on a particular version Just download the xfree source and build packages yourself... besides, the libraries _are_ packaged, they are only not yet in testing. You don't realize that my problems are with m68k. AFAIK there is no m68k hacker in the xfree86 team, I did not hear from anybody who got x4.0 working on m68k and it seems m68k support is still missing in some places.
But ok, I am squeezing everything but the server debs through the phone line now. And _you_ take the complaints from the m68k users, when they are unable to get this installed ;-) I hope I hacked on the changlog ok, I did not remove the two files from Binary:, only from Files: Christian -- First they ignore you.
