It is caused due to an unexpected behaviour (at least by me) when
upgrading several packages at once, but one of the changing directories
to symlinks, and rpm not noticing that, and removing files it just
installed, thinking they were "old" files.
As Pixel said in another email, probably the easiest fix is to
run "urpmi --replacepkgs <package>".
This command should ensure you have everything correct:
# for package in x11-server-common xinitrc x11-server-xorg x11-font-alias; do
if [ x"`rpm -V $package`" != x ]; then
urpmi --replacepkgs $package
fi
done
