Re: LFS 6.5, 6.7, 6.8, 7.0, 7.1 (some "SVN")

Just upgraded Xorg to 7.7-1, thanks to DJ's instructions as in BLFS.

Small corrections needed:

In proto-7.7-1.wget:

   s/applewmproto-1.4.2.tar.bz2/#applewmproto-1.4.2.tar.bz2/
   s/windowswmproto-1.0.4.tar.bz2/#windowswmproto-1.0.4.tar.bz2/

In app-7.7-1.wget:

   s/Xorg-7.7- application/Xorg-7.7-1 application/

I noticed that the wget and md5 files have the fields

# $LastChangedBy: $
# $Date: $

*empty*, perhaps intentionally, or forgotten.

With so many pages, packages, files to deal with, I find it remarkable,
having just these small failures!

Since we had a discussion about upgrading Xorg, I stopped doing some
upgrades. Other than the few new splits, I only had to upgrade 8 packages:

-libX11-1.4.99.901.tar.bz2                  +libX11-1.5.0.tar.bz2
-libXaw-1.0.10.tar.bz2                      +libXaw-1.0.11.tar.bz2
-libXft-2.3.0.tar.bz2                       +libXft-2.3.1.tar.bz2
-libXi-1.6.0.tar.bz2                        +libXi-1.6.1.tar.bz2
-xbitmaps-1.1.0.tar.bz2                     +xbitmaps-1.1.1.tar.bz2
-xinput-1.5.99.1.tar.bz2                    +xinput-1.6.0.tar.bz2
-xmodmap-1.0.6.tar.bz2                      +xmodmap-1.0.7.tar.bz2
-xorg-server-1.12.1                         +xorg-server-1.12.2

With much respect, IMHO, as Xorg is not anymore monolithic, i.e., is
modular, it would be good keeping doing upgrades, for example, once a
month, as several distros do upgrades continuously.
