What packages for the new X11?
Hi again...
I am a little confused by the X packages and the dependencies.
This is the list of what I see using dselect:
> Required packages in section x11
This section does not even exist.
It would be a good thing if it would.

Considering that there does not seem to exist a single
x11-root package, and that there are only 5400 packages,
looking for all the relevant files is a job on its own.
Are the above ones all and only those that one needs?
What happened to xcontrib and xmanpages?

Sergio
