On this note, I generated the same error trying to install xterm-206_1
_after_ deinstalling xorg-clients-6.8.2_1.

>From Updating:

20051113:
  AFFECTS: users of x11/xterm, x11/xorg-clients, x11/XFree86-4-clients
  AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

  Xterm no longer installs with '-static' prefix. Users should upgrade
  XFree86-clients to 4.5.0_1 or xorg-clients to 6.8.2_1 or newer before
  attempting upgrade of xterm to 206_1 or newer. Previous versions remove
  xterm on deinstall so CONFLICTS have been set accordingly.

What was the rationale behind changing this behaviour for 206_1?

cheers,
