Bug#422092: Xorg -version outputs 1.3.0 instead of 7.2
Package: xserver-xorg-core
Version: 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-3
Severity: important
Since update to version 1.3.0.0.dfsg-3 of xserver-xorg-core on Debian
Unstable/Sid, command:
$Xorg -version
reports X Window System Version 1.3.0; should be 7.1.1
This should not be trouble for most users, but my proprietary fglrx
driver asks for X Window System version, and does not work on finding
1.3.0 informed by 'Xorg -version'.
I supose this command should show X Window System version, not debian
package version.
Se outputs of commands:
$ dpkg -l xserver-xorg-core
