Works for me. We even got the Xquartz man page back!
Interesting to note that
pkgutil --file-info /usr/X11/bin/Xquartz
now lists two package as the source for that file: You have to
compare the install-time for the two of them to decide which is
actually present.
Hmm, I didn't know a .pkg could be a single file. It seems they
always come as a bundle wrapped in a .dmg instead, which makes it
easier to look inside if one is so inclined. Any specific reason you
went for this solution? Is it easier to build that way?
