I'm not shure I understand what you mean: Some kind of program
where you can chose:
[x] X-Server
video drivers
[x] intel driver
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] radeon driver
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] ...
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
input drivers
[x] evdev
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] kbd
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] mouse
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
extensions
[x] ...
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] ...
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[x] xdm
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[x] xterm
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
[ ] ...
[x] master
[ ] last tagged version
[ ] X11R6
and which automagically selects all necessary protocols, extensions,
fonts, and whatnot to make it work with your selections and after that
you just start building and it fetches everything and compiles and so
on... it probably could let you select between the tagged versions...
i don't now if that is feasible right now, as i'm just a user :)
but i would definitely find it kind of cool...
cheers,
Flo
