I believe this would have been done by now if it were easy--XFree86 really doesn't like being moved.

There was a discussion on -devel about having Fink package up the system's X11 as a .deb file, so that it could be restored easily.

Now that Apple's X11 will be included as a standard part of Panther, I was wondering if the option has been considered to move Fink's version under /sw.

This would seem consistent with Fink's philosophy of touching nothing outside its own tree except where absolutely necessary (e.g., the added Netinfo users).

Is there any reason left to treat X11 differently from the BSD subsystem, etc., where Fink lets us update to the the newest and latest programs without removing Apple's stock versions?
