Hi Might be interesting for this mailing list as well. :-) Best regards, Stefan ----- Forwarded message from Stefan Dirsch <sndirsch@suse.de> ----- Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2006 17:08:28 +0200 From: Stefan Dirsch <sndirsch@suse.de> To: opensuse-buildservice@opensuse.org, opensuse-factory@opensuse.org Subject: [opensuse-factory] X.Org 7 for Factory Hi We currently are switching to X.Org 7 for Factory. This might result in package build failures. Some hints for packagers to adjust their packages: Changes in X.Org 7 (important for packagers) -------------------------------------------- - X.Org libs: /usr/X11R6/%_lib --> /usr/%_lib * sometimes you need to add '--x-libraries=/usr/%{_lib}' configure option (if available); background: use "-L $AC_PATH_X" with care - if prefix is /usr, $AC_PATH_X is empty. - X.Org executables: /usr/X11R6/bin --> /usr/bin * adjust %files section accordingly when required, e.g. when package uses imake - if autobuild expansion errors for libX11, etc. arises: * either add an additional line '#!BuildIgnore: NX' or package 'xorg-x11-devel' to Buildrequires; Update: probably this problem will be resolved inside of autobuild - X.Org manual path: /usr/X11R6/man --> %_mandir * adjust %files section accordingly - Xserver SDK package: xorg-x11-sdk --> xorg-x11-server-sdk * adjust your BuildRequires - X.Org pixmaps: /usr/X11R6/include/X11/pixmaps/ --> /usr/include/X11/pixmaps/ * adjust %files section accordingly - X.Org Xserver modules: /usr/X11R6/%{_lib}/modules --> /usr/%{_lib}/xorg/modules * adjust %files section accordingly - Mesa DRI drivers: /usr/X11R6/%{_lib}/modules/dri --> /usr/%{_lib}/dri * adjust %files section accordingly - XKeysymDB: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysmDB --> /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB * make sure $XKEYSYMDB is *not* set to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysmDB, but /usr/share/X11/XKeysymDB instead - nls/ directory: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/nls --> /usr/share/X11/nls * only interesting for legacy apps - X.Org fonts: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts --> /usr/share/fonts * move fonts of other font packages as well? /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts will still be allowed ... - Xserver include files: /usr/X11R6/lib/Server/include --> /usr/include/xorg * adjust configure options or Imakefiles/Makefiles - xkb files: /etc/X11/xkb --> /usr/share/X11/xkb - termcap files: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc --> /usr/lib/X11/etc - /usr/lib/X11 is no longer a symlink to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, but a real directory! - /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults --> /usr/share/X11/app-defaults * /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults is still read, but should we disallow the use of /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults nevertheless in autobuild? Package changes: ---------------- xorg-x11 --> xorg-x11 +xorg-x11-fonts +xorg-x11-fonts-devel xorg-x11-Xnest +xorg-x11-Xprt +xorg-x11-Xvfb --> xorg-x11-server xorg-x11-Xvnc (not yet available - on my TODO list) xorg-x11-devel --> xorg-x11-devel +xorg-x11-lib<foo>-devel +xorg-x11-proto-devel +xorg-x11-util-devel +xorg-x11-xtrans-devel xorg-x11-doc --> xorg-x11-doc xorg-x11-driver-options (obsolete) xorg-x11-driver-video +xorg-x11-driver-video-nvidia --> xorg-x11-driver-video xorg-x11-fonts-100dpi +xorg-x11-fonts-75dpi +xorg-x11-fonts-cyrillic +xorg-x11-fonts-scalable +xorg-x11-fonts-syriac --> xorg-x11-fonts xorg-x11-libs --> xorg-x11-libs +xorg-x11-lib<foo> xorg-x11-man --> xorg-x11-devel +xorg-x11-lib<foo>-devel xorg-x11-sdk --> xorg-x11-server-sdk xorg-x11-server +xorg-x11-server-glx --> xorg-x11-server +xorg-x11-driver-input +xorg-x11-driver-video In most cases for building X11 apps it should be enough to add 'xorg-x11-devel' to BuildRequires (as before). If you need Xvfb add also 'xorg-x11-server'. And if you're building external input/video drivers add 'xorg-x11-server-sdk'.
