Folks:

I've just committed a package for xfree86 4.2.99.901 - the last
pre-release before 4.3.  This package supersedes all the previous xfree86
variants (-base, -rootless and -threaded).  However, in order to avoid
requiring a "sudo dpkg -r --force-depends" I've made it depend on new
versions of the xfree86 4.2.1.1 packages which have no "Conflicts".  So,
you'll have to compile xfree86 twice to get the upgrade.  Sorry, but there
was no other way.  Hopefully we can move these to stable quickly and
provide binary packages to ease the pain.

Thanks to all who suggested fixes for the /etc problem - I ended up
following Ben R and Dave M's suggestion of installing directly to
/private/etc.

-Jeff
