Daniel,
     The proposed libxt/libxt-flat packaging in your experimental, which
places both in %p rather than buried subdirectories, would seem to require
either...

every single package building against Xquartz in fink have a BuildDepends
on libxt and a Depends on libxt-shlibs added (which is a real pain)

or

fink be enhanced to interpret the a BuildDepends on x11-dev as implying
both x11-dev and libxt and to interpret a Depends on x11-shlibs as implying
both a x11-shlibs and libxt-shlibs

The second approach, to automate the process, will require that libxt and
libxt-flat be allowed to co-exist by burying the devel files of libxt-flat.
The motif packages would then just prefix the path to this buried
libxt-flat directory (similar to what the currently proposed packaging on
tracker does).
           Jack
