Please unblock xutils-dev and possibly bin-NMU xtel



Hello release team,

   I've just uploaded xutils-dev_7.1.ds-6 to unstable with high urgency.
This fixes bug #403765, which caused the installation of x11-common to fail
due to xtel having a conflicting directory. This was due to an imake
variable, which I've patched to match the rest of the xfonts, so now xtel
will install its fonts to the right location if it uses the new imake
contained in this xutils-dev.

   xtel will also need a bin-NMU with the new xutils-dev. Julien Cristau
noticed that this package hasn't had a maintainer upload since 2003, and is
probably a very good candidate for removal from the archive. xtel is the
only package that appears to use imake to install xfonts, so it's the only
one that will need the bin-NMU to handle this. Thanks!
