back-ported xfree86 changes to the 0.17 branch


I am a bit confused. In the commit message you write:


+ * VirtPackage.pm: Totally reworked the provides of the system-xfree86
+ virtual packages, so that "x11" is provided when the shared libraries
+ and an X server are present, and "x11-dev" is provided when headers
+ and development libraries are present. This will require changes to
+ the BuildDepends: of all x11-using packages. This is a major change
+ (considering how many files it will end up touching) so this change
+ is going into HEAD.


Yet you backport it to the 0.17 branch ?!? That's not good, IMO. 0.17 branch should be for bugfixes and small tweaks for 0.17.1 etc, not for major fundamental changes which break things...
