X extensions tc-9.x

(1/2) > >>

Juanito:
Note that the following X extensions have been updated:

util-macros, xorg-proto, xcb-proto, libxcb, libX11, libXcursor, libXfont2, libpciaccess, libxshmfence, Xorg-7.7-bin and Xlibs

In addition, the following dep files have been updated:

Xfbdev.tcz.dep, Xorg-7.7-dev.tcz.dep, Xorg-7.7-lib.tcz.dep, Xvesa.tcz.dep, xorg-server-dev.tcz.dep and xorg-server.tcz.dep

All of the components of full X now use libXfont2 (I see a difference in how fonts are displayed with flwm/gtk1), but Xvesa and Xfbdev continue to use libXfont.

In order to avoid problems, all of the above extensions (where used) and dep files should be updated at the same time.

Juanito:
further to the above, the following extensions have also been updated:

Xorg-7.7-3d, libEGL, libGL, libGLESv2, libdrm, llvm-lib and wayland-protocols (x86_64 only)

..and glxgears has been replaced by mesa-demos

In order to avoid problems, all of the above extensions (where used) should be updated at the same time.

Libdrm-dev for TC-9 64-bit is missing the *.la files. This breaks compiling open-vm-tools.

Juanito:
They're not missing per se - libdrm now compiles with meson/ninja, which does not generate any *.la files.

This going to increasingly be a pita  :(

andyj:
This is against the latest open-vm-tools, 10.2.5. I don't suppose the Meson folks were kind enough to provide some sort of tool that would make them for backward compatibility. The existing open-vm-tools-desktop extension does not work with the new X libs.
