Description Xake 2007-11-27 15:08:12 UTC
According to the log message in cvs a update some time ago enabled you to rename any xorg related ebuild to somthing-9999*.ebuild and it would automatically make something that fetched and build the component from git.

The problem is this does not work for xorg-server.

The error message:
 * git check out start -->
 *    checkout from: git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver/xorg-server
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fetch-pack from 'git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver/xorg-server' failed.

The problem:
x-modular.eclass tries to fetch git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/${MODULE}/${PN} but the problem is that for the server the correct repo seems to be just git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/${MODULE} (e.i. git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver instead of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/xserver/xorg-server)

The ebuild takes care of that now. All fixed.

Thanks
