Branden has said he may get Colin to remove his xft2 and build it in X;
I'm not sure. All I know is that I need my packages to be able to
co-exist with Colin's xft2.

Xft is not built at all.

AIUI, the rough plan is to have one package per shared library (libx11,
libxpm4, etc), xlibs-static and xlibs-data. I'm unsure as to how the
packages should be named though: I honestly don't see the need for the
'x' prefix, except as some ancient packaging artifact that's no longer
relevant to the real world.
* debian/control:
+ Split xlibmesa a la 4.2.1-5 - xlibmesa4-gl, xlibmesa4-gl-dbg,
xlibmesa4-gl-dev, xlibmesa4-glu, xlibmesa4-glu-dbg, xlibmesa4-glu-dev,
and xlibmesa4-dri. The first three contain libGL, the next three libGLU,
and the latter the DRI modules.
+ Split xlibs a la Branden's Great Leap Forward - every package has its own
library. So, the new packages are: libx11, libxpm4, libxt6, libxmu6,
libxmuu1, libice6, libsm6, libxext6, libxi6, libxp6, libxrender1,
libxrandr2, libxtrap6, libxtst6, libxrx6 and libxcursor1; all of these
packages also have a -dbg and -dev package (the soname is removed for
the -dev package). Locale data and other architecture-independent
stuff has been moved to xlibs-data; static-only libraries are in
xlibs-static.
I should at this point stress that Branden's plan is at this stage only
a preliminary plan and is not guaranteed to happen, least of all in its
current form. I'm only taking his vague ideas and putting them together
as I see best.
