Setting up xfree86 (4.5.0-24) ...
ERROR: /etc/X11 exists, but is not a symlink to /usr/X11R6/etc.
This means you need to run "sudo rm -rf /etc/X11"
And I assume you _want_ xfree86 rather than Apple's X11...
Not sure ... do I lose something by removing Apple's X11?
What version of libgnomeprint2.2-shlibs do you have? It may be that
you just need to update libgnomeprint2.2 to match that.
libgnomeprint2.2-shlibs is not installed either. It produces the same
error, even when trying to install only that package.
