Well, technically they should still build as long as you use the shipped configure script and don't have to autoreconf, but if you need to patch the autotool machinery in any way, that is a problem. Here's what's left on my todo list, based on modules with changes in git since their last tag: app/beforelight app/fonttosfnt app/fslsfonts app/fstobdf app/ico app/listres app/oclock app/proxymngr app/rendercheck app/rgb app/rstart app/scripts app/showfont app/twm app/viewres app/xbiff app/xcalc app/xcompmgr app/xconsole app/xdbedizzy app/xditview app/xedit app/xf86dga app/xfd app/xfindproxy app/xfontsel app/xfs app/xfsinfo app/xfwp app/xgc app/xinit app/xkbprint app/xload app/xlogo app/xlsfonts app/xmessage app/xmh app/xmore app/xrestop app/xsetmode app/xsetpointer app/xsm app/xstdcmap app/xtrap app/xvidtune proto/printproto proto/trapproto util/cf util/imake util/lndir I'm not including drivers in my list, since there's enough other people worrying about those. These modules also have some unreleased changes, but have had recent releases already, so I'm not worrying about them right now: app/luit app/setxkbmap app/xauth app/xclock app/xdm app/xmag app/xrandr app/xset proto/renderproto proto/videoproto proto/x11proto -- -Alan Coopersmith- alan.coopersm...@sun.com Sun Microsystems, Inc. - X Window System Engineering _______________________________________________ xorg-devel mailing list xorg-devel@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
