I think this should do the trick.
Hmm, so currently xmonad has a dependency on x11-with-xinerama? That's bad, because Cabal can't tell the difference between x11-with-xinerama and x11-without-xinerama. Don, is there a reason why xinerama cannot be split off into a separate package? By the way Don, a couple more X11 bits and pieces: * configure.ac still says 1.3.0 * The enable_x11/X11_BUILD_PACKAGE/BUILD_PACKAGE_BOOL stuff in configure.ac can presumably go now that it is no longer built along with GHC.
