Bugzilla Bug 237411

xorg-x11 7.4 is masked now, but it would be nice if you could test it out now
anyways. It's just waiting on the final upstream release, which will involve a
bump of xorg-docs and little else.

Thanks!

Will the dependency-list be reduced for the final release? Portage wants to
install 55 additional packages on my workstation when asked to update xorg-x11
from 7.3 to 7.4. Or am I expected to not install by emerging xorg-x11 but
selecting another package if I want a lean system?

Thank you!

We are using exactly the dependencies specified by upstream X.Org at
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/modular/tree/module-list.txt -- this will
not change.

Yes, just install xorg-server and you'll get everything you need to run it.
Could you check whether that possibility is mentioned in the Gentoo docs?

I'm fine with that :-). I was just surprised because the dependancies changed
so dramatically between 7.3 and 7.4.

I searched through the installation handbook and the desktop handbook. While
the last mentiones the possibility to emerge -pv xorg-server for seeing all
possible USE-flags. But installing it without xorg-x11 doesn't seem to be
proposed.

I added ~sparc, works fine with mga, mach64 and fbdev.

Two miner issues in the xorg-server-1.5 ebuild:
video_cards_ast is not in IUSE_VIDEO_CARDS
video_cards_epson is in IUSE_VIDEO_CARDS but not used...what does it do? Allow
me to use my printer as an output device? I don't think my printer can do 100Hz
:P

Great, thanks for noticing! I fixed that.

In fact it is used -- whatever tool you're using must use simple greps instead
of understanding bash. It builds Xepson, which is a kdrive X server for Epson
LCDs (presumably the kind that accompany some printers).

Since the update requires a recompile of the drivers, I recompiled the glint
driver, only to be running into this problem:

added ~ppc. I need bug #176380 fixed before I can add ~ppc64.
