I had good luck just grabbing them from CVS (http://keithp.com/cvs.html) and doing 'xmkmf; make; sudo make install' in Xc then Xr. Total time, maybe 2 minutes. Caveats: - I only tested with my installed XFree86 being CVS, not with 4.2.0; should certainly work with the Mike Harris's 4.2.99 snapshots, in any case. - This will install files into your installed XFree86 root; it's not a huge mess though, since it's only two files per library or so. > Is it possible to prepare slef-compiling package out of those (just like > FontConfig nowdays)? > Owen: do you plan to prepare RPM for Rawhide? I don't think they are ready for Rawhide -- rawhide can be quite raw, but it's also stuff that we think is going to be ready for the next release; Once they settle down a bit more, I can look at making unofficial RPMS... the main prerequisite there is a tarball and a version number scheme. But they are pretty easy to install as is if you just want to play around.
