This may appear awkward, but it's harmless and transient.

Well, the checks I'm waiting to do are to see whether any of the packages x11-common currently conflicts with need new gnome-ish libs before they can be updated in testing. This is not very likely, since most gnome-using programs are well-behaved and install to /usr/bin instead of to /usr/X11R6/bin; but then, there are far more ill-behaved programs installing to /usr/X11R6 than there should have been anyway... -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world. vorlon@debian.org http://www.debian.org/
