>Description:
        The distfiles expected by x11/xdaemon are not in the
        distfiles directory on ftp.netbsd.org where they're
        supposed to be.

        But perhaps instead of worrying about that, a better
        question might be why the "xdaemon" package is looking for
        distfiles that are obviously intended to contain the new
        NetBSD flag logo, instead of the Beastie, which is what
        xdaemon is (and should remain) to provide.

        If someone wants a NetBSD-logo package, make a NetBSD-logo
        package (just another clone of xteddy, where all of this
        started, after all...)

        I marked this PR as critical/high as if NetBSD cannot even
        manage to get this right, it looks real bad...

>How-To-Repeat:
        cd .../pkgsrc/x11/xdemon
        make checksum

>Fix:
        Revert the 2006/03/02 update to xdaemon and make a new
        package to display the new logo.   Then, make sure the
        full set of logo image files are atually available somewhere
        before commiting the new package...
