Re: Xorg 7.0 and keyboard (again)

I've had issues wih the new X mainly due to the 6.9 still being in the
repository, When installing the optional X parts, protocols and
protocol-devs, I had to make sure that 6.9 was not in the version
anywhere.  This seemed to fix everything

I've everything updated but :
- xlibs which doesnt exist anymore but there are still dependancies on it. gnome-control-center depends on xlibs.
- xfonts-base-transcoded : I've not found an upgrade for it
- libxaw8 : no upgrade available, some dependancies on it
- libxp-dev, pm-dev, libxp-dev : no upgrade available, but probably no consequence at all.
