Bug#457900: xfs: upgrade from xterm freezes X server

[Paul Evans <leonerd@leonerd.org.uk>]

Package: xfs
Version: 1:1.0.5-2
Severity: normal

During a normal 'dist-upgrade' of my system, the xfs package was
upgraded. Early on in 'dist-upgrade', the old XFS was stopped. This
caused the xterm that dist-upgrade was running from to stop responding,
as well as other X programs stopping.

To fix this, I ssh'ed in from another machine and ran:

  /etc/init.d/xfs start

This woke up the xterm and allowed me to finish the upgrade
