Package: xserver-xorg-core

Severity: wishlist

$ grep -c // /var/log/Xorg.0.log
22
21 of which are unsightly double slashes in paths. Please use only
single slashes, else looks sloppy.

P.S.,
$ grep xorg-server /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Build Operating System: Linux Debian (xorg-server 2:1.4.1~git20080517-2)

I wish you would use a real package   ^^^^^^^^^^^ name here that one could
report bugs against. I had a hard time guessing what package this bug
belonged to. grep-status git20080517 gave the answer away though :-)

If you don't know what // means in a path, you're not smart enough to
look at a Xserver log. Fixing this is completely useless.

It's the source package name and versions number the Xserver has been
built from. And reportbug knows about it:

  $ reportbug xorg-server

  Which of the following packages is the bug in?
   1 xdmx                   distributed multihead X server
   2 xdmx-tools             Distributed Multihead X tools
   3 xnest                  Nested X server
   4 xprint                 X11 print system (binary)
   5 xprint-common          Xprint - the X11 print system (configuration files)
   6 xserver-xephyr         nested X server
   7 xserver-xfbdev         Linux framebuffer device tiny X server
   8 xserver-xorg-core      Xorg X server - core server
   9 xserver-xorg-core-dbg  Xorg - the X.Org X server (debugging symbols)
  10 xserver-xorg-dev       Xorg X server - development files
  11 xvfb                   Virtual Framebuffer 'fake' X server
