I've just realized that x11-common 7.0.12 is still the one with broken handling of removal of the /usr/X11R6/bin directory. So it's not unreproducible at all, in fact I still have a machine here that's in this state. The bug should be fixed with the upload of xorg 1:7.0.13, which I hope will happen soon. -- 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/
