Hello.

I'm trying to build Xorg 7.0 on Slackware 10.1 using the
build-from-tarballs.sh script and the "everything" approach.

My build command is:

PATH=/usr/X11R6:$PATH ./build-from-tarballs.sh -d -c -D -m
/usr/src/xorg/Mesa-6.4.1 -e -bz2 /usr/X11R6 >&make.19.log 2>&1 &

My build is currently dieing with:

rm -f TAGS ID GTAGS GRTAGS GSYMS GPATH tags
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xorg/7.0/xorg-server-X11R7.0-1.0.1/xorg-se'
rm -f config.status config.cache config.log configure.lineno
rm -f Makefile
ERROR: files left in build directory after distclean:
./hw/dmx/config/scanner.c
make[1]: *** [distcleancheck] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/xorg/7.0/xorg-server-X11R7.0-1.0.1/xorg-se'
make: *** [distcheck] Error 2

I'm not quite sure how to interpret this error. To be honest, I'm not
entirely sure what distcheck does (besides checking that the built
files are good) so I enabled it with the thinking that it couldn't be
bad. Would it be better to build without -d or -D ? Is there some
other package that I might need to upgrade?

Thanks.

Andy
