Re: X.org installing over Xfree86

Which one do you want ? installing x.org over XFree86 or installing
XFree86 over x.org ?

Debian is migrating away from XFree86, so the second choice will not
remain (because of licencing issues).

Just for the record : x.org is _not_ equal too XFree86, even though they
have the same origin.

if you're trying to install x.org, it is normal that the dependancies try
to remove Xfree-xserver, and relace it with xorg-xserver (i think)
