Great! Thank
I can confirm now that everything is fine Dan
with XFree86-4.6.0 and the
XFree86-4.6.0-freetype_internals-1.patch.
Foolish me, I have sent host.def in xcbuild and not

As noted other day on blfs-dev, XFree86 fails to build with anything
newer than freetype-2.1.10. Fortunately, some fixes were just
committed to the XFree86 CVS just this past week to fix things.

In the instructions for XFree86, there's a command to grep through the
XFree source dir and eliminate references to
/usr/include/linux/config.h. However, this command should no longer be

Possibly, but it also shows a unique way of building in the spirit of

In the build instructions for Xorg and XFree86, it is recommended to
compile the "lndir" program and use it to create a "shadow directory of
symbolic links" where you will actually built the package. Why is this
done? Why not just a separate build dir? I think the BLFS book

I can say that I've read quite a few messages on the blfs-support

used (not necessary an X related support question, just the fact
that XFree was mentioned in with the system setup stuff).

My vote is no. It is an actively maintained project that some folks
might prefer over Xorg (for whatever reason). If it weren't in the
book
I see on /. that debisn sid is now using x.org. Is it time for us to
drop xfree86?
