Package: libxxf86vm1
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11
Severity: important

When compile a program, I encountered the error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXxf86vm

Although I have the libxxf86vm1 package installed, the linker was not
picking up the library.  I looked in /usr/X11R6/lib, and there was no
symlink from libXxf86vm.so to the libXxf86vm.so.1 library file.  Once I
created this link, my program linked correctly.

Links of this type seem to be missing for other libXx* libraries.

This installation is rather fresh (about a week).  I installed sarge,
and then dist-upgraded to testing.
