Was the breakage in the original debian package, or was it locally-inflicted
breakage that happened to be cleaned up by re-installing?
Hmm, not sure, but I
think it was an upstream bug, because sometimes I
had to manually rebuild my fonts.dir fonts.alias files by triggering
the debian supplied update-fonts-dir and update-fonts-alias tools when
I installed/removed some stuff. But I am not sure if it was an
upstream bug because the changelog does not (IMHO) mention something
matching to my troubles.
If it's self-inflicted, that's life. ;) If on the other hand
it was broken
when Debian shipped it, somebody should make a note of that in the PROBLEMS
file...
Thanks, but as I mentioned earlier I run the unstable trunk of Debian
which is not *thought* for production systems. I simply ignore the
fact because I like a very up to date system. And since the problem
disappeared with the latest X (4.1.0-4), I assume any bug(s) concerning
my toubles has been closed.
Yours
Marcus
