Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 7.5+8
Tags: patch
xserver-xorg now no longer creates xorg.conf but XF86Config-4 is not
deleted when purged. So purging and reinstalling even the whole xorg
stack can lead to X not starting because looking into the old file.
I'd suggest removing it in purge.

Another solution would be to change the Xserver to no longer look into
that old file, which would be worthwhile otherwise, but would still
keep that file around after purge on a system upgraded for some Debian
releases before.

Changes:
xorg-server (2:1.7.7-12) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Cherry-pick this to fix crashes with MCE remotes (Closes: #609750):
- mi: handle DGA subtypes when determining the master device.
* Add 22-stop-searching-for-xf86config-files, cherry-picking the
upstream commit below (which we can't do directly since it depends on
a patch kept in the quilt series: 08-config-xorg-conf-d.diff), so that
XF86Config-4 is no longer considered (Closes: #610453). Thanks,
Bernhard R. Link!
- Stop searching for XF86Config files
* Improve bug script:
- Stop reporting about roster and checksum for config file and server
symlink, they are no longer used.
- Replace printf with echo everywhere, it's slightly more readable and
all lines are newline-terminated anyway.
- Also use a “pecho” (pretty echo) function to underline some strings,
making the output slightly more readable.
- Fix listing xorg.conf.d's contents. Previously, that was only done
if xorg.conf existed.
- Check for local libraries by running ldd on the server.
- Check for obsolete libraries in the same way (/usr/X11R6/lib might
still exist in some cases, and be referenced in /etc/ld.so.conf, so
using ldd is sufficient to find out, see #546836 for an example).
