[ Sorry for posting to current-users, I want to reach as many
NetBSD users as possible. ]
I am going to create some packages for i386 port. There will be
some X11 apps amongst them and I am not sure whether it's preferable
to convert R5 applications to use R6 (XFree-3.1.1) libraries
(risk of unnoticed incompatibilities) or I can assume most people
wont refuse to have both sets of libs on their disks (as I have).
I would like to know public opinion.
PS. Simple replies ( "I have ... installed") should be mailed to me
(general remarks to lists), I will post the summary.
Thanks,
