 After some investigation there was infact really no .45.0 - only .43.0 and
 .46.0

You are mistaken. There's been  a .45.0 for a few weeks. The last bump
was yesterday, it takes some time for new X snaps to be made.

 
 A quick (and dirty) 'ln' solved the issue though...

this might work in this case , but is discouraged strongly in general.

The snapshot X sets were build independently from the other sets and
often may lag behind, e.g. on sparc64 they are still from may 29th.

c.43.0 is the version from -release.

Your X sets were build when c.45.0 was the actual version. Your (non-X)
sets already use c.46.0.

 A quick (and dirty) 'ln' solved the issue though...
 
 Don't know if I did a mistake or if there's something wrong with the
 snapshot.
 
 Maybe someone can clarify on this topic.

You may build X from source to resolve your problem or hope to a new X
snapshot appearing in the next days.

You may install snapshots a bit more often.

 Thank you very much
