If I understood the sed command correctly, it replaces /usr/X11R6 in the files with /usr or whatever </usr> is replaced with. So /usr/X11R6 is in the original files and mustn't be changed, because otherwise the sed command wouldn't make sense at all. But if you have another X prefix than /usr (say /usr/X11R7 you have to change the sed argument to 's@/usr/X11R6@/usr/[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Am I completely wrong here?
