Subject: startx, MIA not in today's update

Date: Fri, 16 Feb 2001 19:09:49 -0600

Package: xbase-clients
Version: 4.0.2-3
Severity: important

Looks like the change mentioned in the changelog about not shipping
upstream startx, but supplying a Debian fork... somehow didn't make it
into the deb. No startx exists after updating today, manpage didn't make
it either.

Thanks for all your work on this.

Gordon Sadler
