you'll have to compile xfree86 twice to get the upgrade. Sorry, but there

provide binary packages to ease the pain.


Is this even legal? How can this work? You intend to leave "xfree86-rootless" around forever? Depending a package provided by yourself? I'm surprised that works at all..

Depends: xfree86-shlibs (= %v-%r), xfree86-base (= 4.2.1.1-5) | xfree86-base-threaded (= 4.2.1
.1-4), xfree86-rootless (= 4.2.1.1-5) | xfree86-rootless-threaded (= 4.2.1.1-4)
Replaces: x11, xfree86-base-threaded, xfree86-base, xfree86-rootless-threaded, xfree86-rootles
s
Provides: x11, rman, libgl, xfree86-base-threaded, xfree86-rootless-threaded


Provides/Conflicts/Replaces should work fine.. the only thing that needs to be done is to change ALL versioned dependencies in other packages on xfree* to add "| xfree86". Then Provides/Conflicts/Replaces should work fine and this abuse of the fink system shouldn't be needed.

This prerelease package should be removed immediately.
