Oh, good. :-) I was wondering about the ICE socket directory, which is set
up in /etc/init.d/x11-common, but I suppose libice6 doesn't use it directly?
Now, what does libx11-6 need x11-common for?... does it need the server socket
directory, or does it need Xsession.d? The rest of x11-common is actually
man pages and the like, but that presumably doesn't justify a Depends:
anywhere.
I'm also awfully curious as to what part of xutils depends on x11-common.
Because the only three packages left depending on x11-common are
xserver-common, libx11-6, and xutils.
