Bug 272613 – x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r6 failed to compile

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description zoum 2009-06-04 14:29:09 UTC]

I try to compile xorg-server-1.5.3-r6 ebuild with this  
conf_opts="--disable-screensaver --enable-xcsecurity".

I do it in order to use ssh -X. The way by defaut for this soft is to be compiled with --enable-xcsecurity=no. So, i m used to ssh -Y to enable X11 forwarding.

Is there any way to fix it ?

Reproducible: Always

Please *clearly* describe the bug or the feature request. It looks to me that there's no actual build failure...

[Comment 7 zoum 2009-06-08 07:18:59 UTC]

When i launch this, it failed :

conf_opts="--disable-screensaver --enable-xcsecurity"  ebuild /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-server/xorg-server-1.5.3-r6.ebuild compile.

Consequently, i can't use ssh -X to enable trustly X11 forwarding. I must use ssh -Y.

The least you could do is provide a full build.log...

Then I'm not sure we want to support those options. You'll have to convince us.

If anything, please try again with xorg-server 1.6. I doubt we'll fix such a bug for 1.5.

Thanks

Right, the code is busted and I have no plans to fix this. If git master is still busted, please file a bug in FreeDesktop's bugzilla to get it fixed and I'll nominate those patches for inclusion in 1.6.

Thanks
