What is the rationale for changing the default setting?
I find it very annoying, and from a brief discussion on #debian-devel I
see that I'm not alone.
(BTW, would you mind fixing #284874? It's six months old and should be

Some of us actually do care what is listed in that file, and edit it
from time to time.

Hi everyone,
We're in preparation to upload X.Org packages to unstable, and one of
the things which will happen in this transition is a change in the way
xlibs-static-* packages are handled. If your package build-depends on
xlibs-static, you'll have to update your build-depends to deal with the

It's very likely to become the upstream default soon enough; they are
merely waiting on more testing. Since this is unstable, I decided it was
as good a time as any to provide so
