Bug#408185: /usr/bin/dexconf: Make a back up file for the user.
Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.1.0-11
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/dexconf
-o file, --output=file
By default, dexconf writes to /etc/X11/xorg.conf This option
instructs dexconf to write to file instead. Note that dexconf uncon‐
ditionally overwrites its destination file if it has sufficient
access rights to do so.
Make a back up file for the user.
He types "dexconf" and blows away his xorg.conf. Thanks.
He might not be using dpkg-reconfigure.
