Bug 732298 – x11-base/xorg-server-9999 renames some variables and breaks x11-drivers/xf86-video-*

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

x11-base/xorg-server-9999 renames some variables and breaks x11-drivers/xf86-video-*

master/slave has been changed to primary/secondary which breaks API/ABI

Reproducible: Always




I am sure upstream will fix this soon, but in the meantime these patches do the trick.

All I had to do was use sed to generate them :
s/master/primary/g and s/slave/secondary/g

As you say, this is something we expect to be fixed upstream.

Intel was fixed a couple of days ago. Ati and Nouveau remain.
