thank you



I don't see how your Xwrapper.config could have been removed with the
current preinst/postinst scripts in x11-common. Do you have some
Xwrapper.config.dpkg-*?

I wonder whether you had this file right before the upgrade. x11-common
postinst does not recreate one if it does not exist before the upgrade
(it assumes the user removed it on purpose). The file was part of the
xserver-common package in sarge. Is there any chance this package got
purged? or the Xwrapper.config file got removed before the new
x11-common got installed? did you ever modify/remove it by hand?
