I don't know if it is an error so much as something that I have been
struggling with. There is a general consensus in the X community that
/usr/X11R6 needs to just go away. I am trying to put as few new things
there as necessary (if a package can be used at all without X, then it
doesn't need to be there, IMHO). Now, the real question is whether I
made a conscious decision to root the package in /usr versus just
forgetting to change it to /usr/X11R6? I can't recall doing either of
these... so I really can't say if I was being strong minded or forgetful :)
