[Bulk] Re: current xserver git repo make error

[Michael Faraci]

What would causes version not to be set, I can bypass the first described
error by manually satisfying the value, but then make bombs out in
xf86Init.c at line 1810-28, which i believe is caused by same problem with
version information. xorgversion.m4 is in /usr/local/share/aclocal,
xutils-dev is current. Thank you for your help!

Yes, this is the version below, also xorgversion.m4 is defined in
/usr/local/share/aclocal. This is the macro you are referring to right?
xutils-dev     1:7.2.ds2-1    X Window System utility programs for develop

It looks like the release version isn't getting set correctly, so some
parts are empty.  Is the xutils-dev package installed when you run
autoreconf/autogen, and is the XORG_RELEASE_VERSION macro available?

Cheers,
Julien
