thanks for the patches.

need to think about it.

(and bumps the build-dep.)

it's not a single character change, 5→7 might lead to some changes
which might not be spotted through debdiff.

no.

maybe.

maybe.

I've just performed a switch to dh in all drivers. Not sure I want to

ongoing preparation of X11R7.6 in sid.

Thanks.
