Alright, lets pick this old merge review up, because I think we can beat it
into shape.

The biggest item that I see here is that there is an embedded update "script".
That would make a lot more sense to have it live as a Source file, especially
since it is not using any rpm macros. It would also simplify the rpm spec file
quite a bit.

There is the question as to whether this script (and the %pre copy) are still
necessary in Fedora. If you think so, please keep them, if not, please remove
them both from the package.

Please add an empty %build section.

Also, %dir %{_bindir}/xorg-x11-filesystem-upgrade is just wrong. That's a
script, not a directory.

The last issue is that there seems to be fair bit of directory ownership
duplication in the xorg stack. 

/usr/lib/X11: filesystem, xorg-x11-filesystem

/usr/include/X11/: xorg-x11-filesystem, libfontenc-devel, libxkbfile-devel,
libXdmcp-devel, libXfixes-devel, libICE-devel, libSM-devel, libXau-devel,
libXt-devel, libXpm-devel, libXmu-devel, libXft-devel, libXv-devel,
libXcursor-devel, libXvMC-devel, libXaw-devel, libXevie-devel, libXres-devel,
libXfont-devel, libXcomposite-devel, libXrender-devel, libXdamage-devel,
xorg-x11-xtrans-devel, libX11-devel, libXrandr-devel, xorg-x11-proto-devel

/usr/share/X11: xorg-x11-filesystem, xorg-x11-server-utils,
xorg-x11-font-utils, xorg-x11-utils, imake, libX11, xkeyboard-config

If we don't need the upgrade script anymore, do we need this package anymore?
Could we let filesystem own /usr/lib/X11 and /usr/share/X11,
xorg-x11-proto-devel own /usr/include/X11 (and all those other dupes should
Require: xorg-x11-proto-devel)
