Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 7.0.18

I've noticed that a few man pages reference manpages and paths that are
no longer correct due to some xorg 7 changes. Some of these manpages
come from xorg, others are in other packages.

1) References to things in /usr/lib/X11/ that are now elsewhere. In
particular I noticed a package's manpage that referred to
/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/. A lot (all?) of these things are bugs
that should be fixed in the package delivering the manpage but maybe
there should be a symlink for a transitional period? All of these
packages need to be hunted down and bugs filed. Let this bug track
that someone needs to do this.

2) References to X(1), X(1x), and X(7). xorg renamed this to Xorg(1x).
Should the manpages that reference these be fixed, symlinks created so
they still work, or both?

3) Other similar potential changes that I'm not aware of.

Thanks,

Most of these manpages should be fixed by now. If not, please file bugs
against the corresponding package with the exact list of manpages and
lines to fix.
