At the BLFS project, www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs, we are struggling
with incorporating the changes in the xorg build process. Right now we
have to create a method to download and build many, many tarballs.
Within BLFS, xorg is the only package that requires such a complicated
process to get an X implementation running from source. The only other
project that comes close to the current xorg build complexity is Gnome
and it has less than half the packages of xorg.
What are the plans, if any, for creating an official method of packaging
and building all of xorg at once? Pointers to existing documents will
be appreciated.
