On another topic..I somehow got rootonly in my debconf database, and set the
value of allowed_users in Xwrapper.config to "console" by hand (using vim)
On the next upgrade, it was reset to "rootonly" and startx started failing
again.
Should it be considered a bug that upgrading X will silently clobber
non-debconf modifications to that file, replacing them with the debconf
values? Or is this acceptable?
