This release addresses all the installation problems of which I am aware,
though there may be a few pathological problems lurking somewhere. If they
are brought to my attention through the Bug Tracking System I will try to
fix them.
There are likely still some small problems with XF86Setup, but if you
already have a valid /etc/X11/XF86Config file corresponding to your
preferred server, it should work.
Those wishing to help out are invited to take their X packages off of hold
now. This release is STILL not cleared for "production" environments,
though, I don't feel it has been tested enough. ("Production" environments
should be using hamm anyway.)
Anyway, there is light at the end of the tunnel now.
