X binary errors w. latest Debian rel.

[hugo v. <hug...@ca...>]

Hi team!

Using the latest Debian "testing" (i.e. the next
stable) release with the bruby binary X that is
on www.schuldei.org there are errors:

Errors were encountered while processing:
/mnt/Debian3.1/CD1/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/libx11-6_4.3.0-7_i386.deb
/mnt/Debian3.1/CD2/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/x-dev_4.3.0-7_all.deb
/mnt/Debian3.1/CD2/debian/pool/main/x/xfree86/libx11-dev_4.3.0-7_i386.deb
/mnt/Debian3.1/CD2/debian/pool/main/r/render/render-dev_0.8-4_all.deb

Those libraries are pulled in as a result of
trying to install libxft-dev in order to compile
Mozilla with Xft.

This used to work, but of course I don't know
exactly when.

It appears that those libs should be part of the
the bruby X binary.

I'd be willing to do that, but I need some
pointers as to how to proceed.

Regards,

Hugo

PS. You get around the error by using dpkg with
--force-all, since both versions are 4.3.0.
But that won't work when the versions start to
differ. "Testing" now says X is 4.3.0-7
