i suppose that it is better to be able to have incrimental upgrades w/ separate packages..... but xfree86-rootless always depends on the latest xfree86-base. so we still upgrade the whole, just it takes more steps. I'd like to see many more parts/sections of the xfree86 packages. I'd b willing to help/do some of it if i knew what eggactly needed to be done (I don't fancy myself an X11 xpert)

Well, code that is partially well-factored is better than not having it done
at all - the point of running open-source beta software is that we can have
incremental improvements...

I agree that the rootless package is kind of pointless, but as "Anthony
DeRobertis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said there are many situations
when X11 libs, but no X server are needed. but because fink installs ALL
of XFree86 except the server in one package that argument is moot until
we see many more X11 packages.
