Removing a reference to a.out does not mean there may not be people having a.out binaries. It would just mean that questions about a.out are no longer "frequently asked". The Debian FAQ has not to cover *every* case, past, present or future, because then it would not be a FAQ but an enciclopaedia (mmm, is this the right word?). You are absolutely right in that having a libc5-linked X client is now the most probably reason for this error message, so I will change the answer for this question to reflect this fact. -- "a45837081fc2bafbc1a2ddf137c876c2" (a truly random sig)
