Re: RFC: Future of xserver-xorg (v2)



New try, since it looks like we actually want to keep the xserver-xorg
metapackage.

If the X wrapper stays in xserver-xorg, we probably should put
xwrapper.config there too?

Or we could just stop depending on xserver-xorg from -core.

I noticed xserver-xorg is mentioned in several packages like gdm3,
kde-plasma-*, lxde. So people may actually end up with no xorg package
installed. Maybe we should ship xsf-docs in the xserver-xorg package
then?

FWIW, having html+pdf+txt currently means:
| 476K	/usr/share/doc/xorg/
