Please find initial attempt attached -- review, critique is welcome but would be even better if some xserver pkg expert would just improve up it. I have distributed sources in the -source packge - as a tarball since they would most probably would need to be patched anyways, thus would need to be copied, and better --just extracted - as .xz since it becomes used widely and provides better compression - I left the distributed tarball unversioned to ease/disambiguate its use by projects needing xorg sources to build upon Cheers! -- Yaroslav O.

+ This package provides original Debian (with Debian patches already

+ X server shipped in a tarball. This enables other projects re-using

+ Unless you are building a software product using X server sources,
+ you probably want xserver-xorg and/or xserver-xorg-core instead.
