Re: building X on DragonFly

[Craig Dooley <cd5697@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I got mine working by
pkg_delete -rf "XFree*";
build:
  /usr/dfports/make/imake4
  /usr/dfports/x11/XFree86-4-libraries
  /usr/ports/x11-server/XFree86-4-server
  /usr/ports/graphics/dri

  it will die with freetype having unresolved symbols to expat.  For
  some reason the linker is not picking up all the paths, so I did
  something like:
    cd /usr/local/lib;
    for x in `ls *.so.*`;do
      ln -s /usr/local/bin/${x} /usr/lib/${x}
    done
  and the same for /usr/X11R6/bin
  you can use cpdup also I believe, but I prefered to just symlink
  /usr/ports/x11/kdebase3 needs you to take ksysguardd out of
  work/kdebase/Makefile.  It also needs the chown/chmod line taken out
  of the port Makefile.  kdenetwork built fine for me.  

As for X, what is the best path?  Should we take FreeBSD.cf, and make a
Dragonfly.cf?  I doubt we can get into 4.4, but we could keep it
locally.  Is that enough to fix things, or is it more broken than that?
I havent looked at the dfport yet.  Hope this helps
