What other X11 versions have you tried?  Like X11-tiger?

I don't know 100% that this would solve the problem, but I suspect doing this would work:

rm -rf /usr/X11 /usr/X11R6
Install X11User.pkg from Leopard's DVD (I think it's in Optional Installs.mpkg or something similar)
Install X11SDK.pkg from X-Code
Install the update from xquartz.macosforge.org (2.1.1 or 2.1.2 which should be out soon)

Hi there,

I've been fiddling around a lot recently with various variants of X11 under Leopard,
with the most inconvenient result, that I cannot compile my beloved Scribus neither under Fink nor MacPorts...
I have lost track, which versions of X11 I have installed over which others.
Then I have tried to sweep everything and start from scratch, however I must have forgotten something somewhere,
as Scribus and depending ports still failed to compile and/or run.
Before, under Tiger, I could compile Scribus using Fink or MacPorts without any problems ever...


So, I wish, that I could simply start all my X11 from scratch and install somethings fresh:
For instance: the X11 from the Leopard-CD and X11 2.1.1 from Jeremy. Right?


But what would I have to clean up before that?
Would some of you experts please point me to the necessary steps?

Cheers,
Thorsten.
