I found it (googling) in http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/install_readme.txt but not in the pages http://dri.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/ (that are the main entry point for DRI ) you may want to add a copy of install_readme.txt also inside the daily snapshots at http://www.freedesktop.org/~dri/snapshots/ install_readme.txt also states that I must use XFree v4.1 whereas http://dri.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Download says "XFree 4.3 are in Debian sid" (implicitely suggesting that they are ok) > If you feel like logging could be improved you're welcome to submit a > patch. ;-) I don't have the time to look into it ATM and as I don't use > snapshots myself the install script is always the hardest part for me to > test. yep. the idea that I have is that, in Debian, 'install.sh' should use dpkg-divert to move aside files a. -- Andrea Mennucc "one houndred and fifty - the chicken sings"
