Package: x11-common
Version: 1:7.0.20
Severity: important

After an upgrade from xorg 6.9 to 7.0, startx and other scripts
dont work anymore, because xorg isnt started by using X but by using Xorg.
IMHO for compatibility and especialy during the transition X should be
a wrapper around Xorg.

Interestingly X itself doesn't print any error why it couldnt
start x, it just exits. There is not even a warning.
IMHO this should be fixed to, to avoid problems during and after
upgrade
