Hello, As the former x-window-system-core and xorg are identical (except for the additional xterm dependency, which imho really should allow alternatives) and as the name x-window-system-core is generic (it is not named "xfree86") I wonder whether the xorg package should not simply be dropped in favour of x-window-system-core. There are currently no reverse depencies on xorg (except x-window-system-*) in Debian so it *still* could be done without pain. cu andreas -- The 'Galactic Cleaning' policy undertaken by Emperor Zhark is a personal vision of the emperor's, and its inclusion in this work does not constitute tacit approval by the author or the publisher for any such projects, howsoever undertaken.
