Description Joachim Frieben 2006-01-30 05:23:46 EST

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20051215 Epiphany/1.9.5.1

Description of problem:
After installation from the rawhide tree as of 2006/01/27, a
non-existing link

  /etc/X11/X -> ../../usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg

is created.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-10.91.8-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora from the rawhide tree.
2. Check content of /etc/X11.

  

Actual Results:  "X" points to "/usr/X11R6/bin/Xorg".

Expected Results:  "X" should point to "/usr/bin/Xorg".

Additional info:

A post-firstboot run of "system-config-display-1.0.36-1" creates
the correct link. Because that is the version of the original
package, the wrong link does not seem to have been created by
"system-config-display-1.0.36-1" during the firstboot setup
procedure.

The absent of the right link does not seem to trigger any negative
effect though.
