Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.22
The sun* drivers for Creator, Elite, Leo, and other Sun framebuffers are now
packaged separately from xserver-xorg as of 7.0. packages.debian.org
indicates that these driver packages are "unavailable".
xserver-xorg 6.9.0 provided working drivers for at least suntgx and sunffb.
Since 7.0 migrated to Testing, there are no Xorg 6.9 packages left as
alternatives for installations or upgrades from earlier Xorgs or Xfree86.
I managed to destroy a working 6.9 installation by upgrading to 7.0 using
Synaptic and individual package choice. Everything installed without
dependency errors, leaving me with an xorg.conf file that refers to a missing
sunffb driver file.
-- thanks, SP

Hi,
The packages in question have recently appeared in unstable and will
propagate to testing shortly, so closing this bug.
