Bug#362229: xserver-xorg-core: symlink does not fix

2006-04-13 Thread Ray Kohler
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 1:1.0.2-3
Followup-For: Bug #362229

I am also seeing XKB problems. The server logs this:
(WW) Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap

and xdm logs this:
sh: /usr/bin/xkbcomp: No such file or directory
Thu Apr 13 21:50:13 2006 xdm error (pid 29059): failed to open input method
 
I tried creating the symlink, and restarting the server, but it's no
good. (Note that xdm is looking in the wrong place for xkbcomp.)

I notice that xbase-clients (source xorg-x11), which contains xkbcomp
and setxkbmap, is still at 6.9.0. Is the xorg-x11 source package going
to be updated, or is it to be phased out somehow?

This causes me some rather serious problems - besides my "ctrl:nocaps"
not being honored, I am entirely unable to switch TTYs (I get some odd
output when I type Ctrl-Alt-F1 instead, even though xev shows normal
events).

Bug#365948: x11-common: broken depends on compat package xfree86-common

2006-05-03 Thread Ray Kohler
Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.0.16
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Version 7.0.16 of x11-common depends on xfree86-common, which is a
"useless" compatibility package. Making things worse is that
xfree86-common conflicts with x11-common. This prevents x11-common from
being installed at all.

I screwed this up. It installs fine if I do it right.

So your assessment is that there's no bug here?  What way did you do it
first that was "wrong", btw?


Right, I don't think there's really a bug here. What I did wrong, was to 
try to install them "by hand" with dpkg, and not to notice that I was 
dealing with a Pre-Depends rather than an ordinary Depends. In any case, 
I can't reproduce it at all installing it with apt-get.
