Re: New woody upgrade problems
Here's a problem related to your problem. I got the same error when
trying to install xlibs. Earlier, I had received a warning about the
app-defaults thing. I moved the files in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults to /etc/app-defaults, and made a
symlink from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults to /etc/app-defaults
(because I thought this was what I was supposed to do). Later, when I
tried to install xlibs, I got the same error message you got. I
couldn't figure out how to fix it. Finally, I removed the symlink I
made, and created a directory called /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults.
The xlibs package then installed fine, but I undid what I did before in
response to that warning. Anybody got any ideas on how to sort this
out? Everything still works fine, but now I suspect I'll continue to
get the warning about "the files in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults
need to be moved to /etc/app-defaults" and
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/ is a directory that should be a
symlink".
