Please Sven, keep cool.

You have a opinion that every respect, me first.


But maybe it could be interesting to listen to other, even if you think that 
those people are stupid.

IMHO, like explained in package, the package contain symbolic link to the 
"developer" library.

This library could not be the actual installed on the system (that is a link 
from libX11.so.6).


FPC acts like a "normal" user of libX11.so library, not as a developer (this is 
for C programmers who needs the C headers and work on the developer ibX11.so 
library.)

Exactly, and it is why, for each fpc version, the appropriate symlink should be 
assigned ( at the moment libX11.so.6  )

 This *is* your way to see this.
