1. As mentioned in the same thread, this is work in progress.
2. I just downloaded xfree86-common and run md5sum on it:
$ md5sum xfree86-common_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_all.deb
a50e503b86698974759855f758b23d19 xfree86-common_4.3.0.dfsg.1-14sarge1_all.deb
This is the same as listed on the download page, and the dependencies
listed at http://packages.debian.org/stable/x11/xfree86-common are
'debconf' and 'debianutils'.
Please do your homework BEFORE posting such questions. And I am being
nice here!
For list readers: This must be my punishment for answering Xandros
questions on a Debian list. I've certainly learned my lesson, the hard
way :(
