I always wondered what does that actually mean and I interpreted it
(probably wrongly) as saying that e.g. the manpage for XFree should
actually be XFree.3x to avoid risk on conflicts with other packages.
We does that for ncurses, ssh and perl at least and this seems reasonnable
for X also.
Could you restate the options for people unfamiliar with xorg packaging ?
