After coming back to Debian I noticed Xorg > is still in the old /usr/X11R6 tree. Hello, Franz. I can only speak for myself. I am packaging xterm because in 6.9 xterm will be splitted from the main tree, and I did that same thing: move all to /usr/bin/ and all the stuff. The only thing remaining is that I do not know if the man pages should have 1.gz or 1x.gz extension... I suppose that upcoming packages will try to bend our filesystems in order to comply with current standards and move gradually all the things to /usr/bin, /usr/lib, ... I do not remember such item in the TODO list, though. Best regards, Ender. -- En la noche de tu sangre los glóbulos son estrellas, cometas los hematíes y planetas los átomos de hierro. -- La palmera transparente (Mario Satz) -- Debian developer
