Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.3+8
Severity: important
Just done a clean install of sid on my desktop and cannot generate an xorg.conf
from xserver-xorg package.
Popping set -x in dexconf gives the following:
+ read -r _db_internal_line
+ RET='10 xserver-xorg/config/display/modes doesn'\''t exist'
+ case ${_db_internal_line%%[ ]*} in
+ return 10
xserver-xorg postinst warning: error while preparing new Xorg X server
configuration file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.dpkg-new; not attempting to
update existing configuration
Checking xserver-xorg.templates shows that this debconf template does not exist
(and, thinking back, I was not asked the usual mode questions).
Richard.
