daenzer@thor|11:05:36> dpkg -S /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc
xbase-clients: /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc
daenzer@thor|11:06:54> apt-cache policy xbase-clients
xbase-clients:
  Installed: 1:7.0.0-4
  Candidate: 1:7.0.0-4
  Version table:
 *** 1:7.0.0-4 0
        500 http://ftp.ch.debian.org sid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

What does

grep xserverrc /var/lib/dpkg/info/xbase-clients.*

say on your system? (XSF: It's not listed as a conffile here, is that
intentional?)
