Title: piCore 8.x - armv7 - xorg-proto
Post by: Misalf on January 17, 2017, 11:00:06 AM

The piCore version of  xorg-proto-dev.tcz  seems to be missing several files when compared to the x86 version (xorg-proto.tcz).

When building Tint2, these where reported to be missing:

Code: [Select]

compositeproto
damageproto
xineramaproto
renderproto

Since  xorg-proto.tcz  from TC-7.x x86 doesn't contain any binaries, I just installed that one on the RPi and Tint2 compiled fine and works.
Adventures me didn't even checked Xorg versions - They differ (1.18.3 vs. 1.18.4). :p
Not sure about xorg-proto though, as the respective .info files both list:

Code: [Select]

Version:        Various

Have the above mentioned files just been MIA or have they been left out on purpose for the RPi?
Can I continue to use  xorg-proto.tcz  from the TC-7.x x86 repo or is that a stupid idea?

They are compatible enough that at most you'll get reduced functionality or compile errors. No sudden crashes or non-working binaries.

Thanks.
Just to be clear, does that mean it would be safe to submit extensions created with slightly off-version xorg-proto?

Yes.
