--- Begin Message ---Package: x11-common Version: 1:7.7+8 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, With the latest update to sid x11 released a day or so ago (1:7.7+8) x fails to start. This has be traced to /usr/bin/X (wrapper for X) is not configured, and /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc refers to this. Now I've hacked /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc to point to /usr/bin/Xorg This means I can start X - but only as root, as not surprising permissions to start X where in the /usr/bin/X wrapper. Any ideas of a better fix? I could just create a link with the right sticky bit set - but seems better to fix at source.
