13 There is nothing spurious about it. You aren't reading closely enough to
14 see the '<=' (less than or equal to) in front of it. Maybe you want to
15 check out the "Blocked packages" section of the handbook [1]. Basically
16 it's saying that you need to uninstall your old xorg-x11 before you can
17 upgrade to the new, modular xorg-x11. Please also glance at the howto
18 for this upgrade [2].
