Does OIN cover the specific version we're carrying? I thought OIN was
version specific.
It covers a specific version of a package, and the functionality provided by
that version in any successive release of that package. So, even though
libX11 was split out of the xorg-x11 package after the OIN package list
was approved, it's still covered.
