Hi,

About 2 years ago, you reported (or replied to) a bug in the Debian BTS
regarding dpkg-reconfigure not creating XF86Config-4. Did you reproduce
this bug recently? If not, I will close this bug in the next weeks.

No, I haven't seen this recently, but I now use Xorg rather thanXFree86. "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" behaves in a more logical wayin that it renames the existing file and writes the new one as requested.

I have no way of knowing whether the fix suggested has been applied inxserver-xfree86.


Regards,
John Winters
