Bug#365510: 11.8.7: X11R7 puts headers in /usr/include/X11
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.7.0.0
Severity: normal
Latest policy still says in 11.8.7 "Packages must not provide or install
files into the directories /usr/bin/X11/, /usr/include/X11/ or
/usr/lib/X11/."
But the new X11R7 dev packages now generally put their headers into
/usr/include/X11/.
So the sentence in 11.8.7 must be changed to either remove the mention of
/usr/include/X11/ or to specify that only X11R7 headers may be placed there.
Thanks,
Drew
