But why should a "clean" system have a /usr/X11R6 at all ? I tried a "pkg_delete -a && rm -rf /usr/X11R6" before installing xorg, and I applied the minor patch in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=112796 to make xorg-libraries. Now I don't have /usr/X11R6 and all the ports I installed are happy with that. Everything compiled, installed and now run without /usr/X11R6.
FreeBSD can now use xorg modular, and we got rid of X11BASE. Thanks for your great work ! Maybe some ports will be broken without /usr/X11R6, but I'm sure it will be OK in few days/weeks after patchs.
Please keep FreeBSD X11R6-free !
