When I try to install Xfree86-base I get this
"Unpacking replacement xfree86-base ...

ERROR: /etc/X11 exists, but is not a symlink to

and when I try to install xfree86-shlibs I get
"dpkg -i

and when I try to install them from binary I get
"need to reinstall xfree86-base but can not do because
can not find archive"
so whats up with this?
It sounds like you have some horrible mixture of XFree86 and Apple's X11. Which do you want? Also, if you're on Panther, none of this versions work.
