>Description:
Packages? or missing symlink..

Cannot open help file: /usr/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp

ah. Where?
>How-To-Repeat:
% locate xmmix.hlp
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp
% su
Password:
skumle# mv /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp /usr/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp
mv: rename /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp to /usr/lib/X11/xmmix.hlp: No such 
file or directory
% cd /usr/lib
% ls -l X11
-rw-r--r--  1 root  bin  0 Nov 27 11:22 X11

no symlink?

% cd X11
X11: Not a directory.

or symlink even. This package was installed on a new
installation of fbsd from /stand/sysinstall.
>Fix:
% cd /usr/lib

# rm -f X11

% ls -la X11
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root  bin  18 Nov 27 13:10 X11 -> /usr/X11R6/lib/X11

this missing symlink may be result of some package, but I do not know
if it is xmmix or other package from x11..
