Bug Description

latest (libx11-6 1:6.2.1+cvs.20050615-3) version lacks XauGetBestAuthByAddr
symbol, this makes X11 applications unusable,
every application linked to libX11-6 works gives following error message:

kbryd@mob:/tmp/driconf-0.2.6$ kino

(kino:17217): Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib

(kino:17217): Gdk-WARNING **: cannot set locale modifiers
kino: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: undefined symbol:
XauGetBestAuthByAddr

but for example libx11-6_6.8.2-23_i386.deb behaves correctly.

apt-get remove --purge libx11-6 helped, it removed 1.1GB of packages but after
reinstall the error gone.
