First, thanks all of you for having drop XFree86 4.3 into experimental!
Since I'm using some notebook with a Trident CyberBlade XPAi1, I need it.
I will use it everyday, at home as well as at work.
First thing I found when running it: the UTF-8 environment doesn't work
anymore ! To find the problem, I did strace some program (like galeon)
and found that they was looking for some UTF-8 library in:
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/common/xlcUTF8Load.so.2
But there is no such directory as /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/common !
I found the corresponding library in a subdirectory "lib/common".
So, this is the hack I'm using for now to be able to use UTF-8 environment:
ln -s lib/common /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/common
Best regards, J.C.

No problem. Thank you for the swift followup and being willing to admit
that the problem was caused by your own actions. We, ahem, have certain
*developers* in the Debian project who can't manage such candor.
Thanks again. I hope my packages continue to work satisfactorily for
you.
Closing per submitter.
