/usr/X11R6


We get people every so often who have problems with the X11 virtual
packages due to a missing /usr/X11R6 -> /usr/X11 compatibility
symlink.  Even though it's not hard to have them set up one symlink, I
think they shouldn't necessarily have to.

Personally, I'd favor dispensing with /usr/X11R6 altogether in the
fink perlmodules and init.(c)sh and use /usr/X11 instead, since
there's no reason Fink should need that symlink to function.   Most
packages that use /usr/X11R6 in e.g. their ConfigureParams, true, but
that could be remedied.

This would make backporting to 10.4-EOL more difficult, admittedly.

Any thoughts?
