Bug#317622: acknowledged by developer (Re: Bug#317622: xserver-xfree86: X uses /root/bak_XF86/XF86Config-4_0 -- seriously..)
This occured. I don't know if its reproducible and yes
I am very aware of man XF86Config. I know the
difference between /root and
/root/bakXF86Config/<Xfile>_0 otherwise I wouldn't be
wasting my time filing in this bug.. it did happen and
I know what I am doing--<no offense>..
