Re: xbase 3.3-6 problem



According to the postinst script, this will occur if you have any of the
following directories:
/usr/bin/X11
/usr/include/X11 
/usr/lib/X11

I'm assuming these are safe to delete if there is nothing in them.  If
there is something in them, leave it and the config will take care of it
(move to /usr/X11R6/*/X11).  Then reconfigure.
