+Tag: package-installs-file-to-usr-x11r6
+Severity: error
+Check: desktop/x11
+Explanation: Packages using the X Window System should not be configured to install
+ files under the /usr/X11R6/ directory. Debian has switched to the modular
+ X tree which now uses regular FHS paths and all packages should follow.
+ .
+ Programs that use GNU autoconf and automake are usually easily configured
+ at compile time to use /usr/ instead of /usr/X11R6/. Packages that use
+ imake must build-depend on xutils-dev (>= 1:1.0.2-2) for the correct
+ paths.
