x11-base/xorg-server-1.14.3-r1 here. I still have those packages; |
| 27 |
they're pulled in by x11-base/xorg-x11, which is the main Xorg |
| 28 |
meta-package that pulls in xorg-server. As for whether you need them, |
| 29 |
I think that's your call. I haven't tried xorg-server without xorg-x11 |
| 30 |
in a while, but lots of those utilities are useful (xkill, xrandr...). |
