Then 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 is not the right version of the package to report this
against.  Please tell us what version of libx11-6 you were installing.

I see no way that this bug could happen with the current code; the error
message occurs only when support for the named transport has not been
compiled into the library, and 'local' is a transport that should be
compiled in unconditionally.

The version that fails is libx11-6 (1.0.0-6). The moment I install it, I
can not run applications (and the same error is reported again), even
without having restarted the X server. Obviously, the server does not
boot again since the old library (6.9.0) is installed.

Do you have any sort of highly customized stuff on your system? Maybe an
alternate kernel or customized packages?

Also, is there any way you could get us a backtrace of this happening with
debugging symbols?  libx11 has a -dbg package for you to install, and that
should be sufficient. It'd be nice to have a window on what's actualy going
on, because this is incredibly bizarre. 

Finally, could you send us your /var/log/Xorg.0.log from when the server
tries to start?

When migrating to X.Org 7 in Debian unstable, X server report this error
and does not create the X-11 Socket. Xdm, kdm, gdm and startx stay frozen and
only a blank screen with X cursor is showed.

If I install libx11-6 from Debian testing (X.Org 6.9) the problem is
solved.
