don't need to escape those forward slashes, fwiw.

i hope that wasn't a request for help on that...

uhm. if that worked, are you sure the original error wasn't "this

i have no idea what that question means. all the links you provided
linked from /usr/X11R6/lib/something to /etc/X11/something. how does one
migrate a symlink? and what does this have to do with the wrapper
