Bugzilla Bug 112004

The X.Org 7.0, as all know, will be modular, of course the passage from the
monolitic to the modular X creates some problems.

This a tracker for the bugs releated to the X.Org 7.0, the modular X.Org.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Thanks, I had been meaning to do this.

Bugs _in_ modular X are very different from bugs in other apps related to
fixing
them for modular X. Could the creator of this tracker please make a new one for
those?

Attempt to update to xorg-xerver-0.99.3-r1 fails in the new patch, messages
look
like this:

And so on.

Failure is consistent across all systems.

Ya, there was another bug filed on this too.  It's fixed in CVS.  I didn't even
consider badness of CVS tags in the patch body, I've never come across that
before...

Maybe can be useful to see the tracker on freedesktop.org
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1690), this is the tracker for
xorg 7 and 6.9 (the monolitic X).

Yes you're right.

I don't know if it's useful at this time create another tracker for very similar
problems.

I think also that if the programs aren't ready for modular X, modular X can't be
ready to be stable.


PS: That's only my opinion, but I'm not a gentoo developer, I've just filed this
tracker because I think it can be useful for speed up the resolution of the
modular X problems.

I do, because the x11 team doesn't want to get spammed with 10,000 apps getting
ported to modular X. I'll start doing it myself if I have do, but I would
appreciate it if you were willing to deal with since you filed the bug.

OK...see bug #112675 I hope this is a good thing. Probably yes.

Please see https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111361#c18 --- this appears
to be an old error reappearing for sparc.

Please note https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5622 for a problem on
sparc with gcc-3.4.5 & xorg-server.  To get a good libglx.so, xorg-server must
build with -D__GLX_ALIGN64 (it is only by chance that libglx.so built with
gcc-3.3.5 works at all).  (Fix is completely trivial, and it should be possible
to handle it through CFLAGS until freedesktop issues an official fix.)

Not sure if this is the correct place in bugzilla to file this, but here goes. 
During a fresh emerge of modular X, x11-apps/xsetroot-1.0.1 fails because
x11-misc/xbitmaps has not been intstall yet.  The modular X build was actually
pulled in as a dependency when building dev-lang/php.

Here is the error message:

hecking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for XSETROOT... configure: error: Package requirements (xmuu x11
xbitmaps) were not met:

No package 'xbitmaps' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XSETROOT_CFLAGS
and XSETROOT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
