Install errors on PPC debian system for xfree86-common and xlibs-data



I hope this reaches a person, the address looks like a mailing list, and I'm sure I haven't subscribed...

While trying to apt-get upgrade to 4.3.0-3 off the debian experimental server I get the following errors:

/tmp/xfree86-common.config.45651: 610: Syntax error: end of file unexpected (expecting ")")

I'm now back to 4.3.0-2 for now.
