No, I object to talking about problems with specific packages in the
Install Manual.  The damn document is big enough as it is.  The proper
place for this is the FAQ or the postinst to xdm.

Yes, right at the tippy top: "1.1 Getting the Newest Version of This
Document".  You should direct newbies to the Install Manual on the
official web site; for your arch, this is
<URL:http://www.debian.org/releases/2.1/sparc/install.html>.
