Introduction to Xorg7/Apps

There are 92 applications available for Xorg. Once again, the most efficient method of retrieving the source tarballs is to append *.bz2 or *.gz to the URL above.

Alternately, if you chose to use subdirectories, the tarballs can be retrieved as follows. This will prevent multiple versions from being downloaded when multiple versions exist.

wget https://cblfs.clfs.org/Special:Filepath/App-20101205.wget &&
cd app &&
wget -B http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/app/ -i ../App-20101205.wget

Not all applications are required for a working X Windows. Many are nothing more than demonstration programs. Applications bdftopcf, mkfontdir, mkfontscale, xcursorgen, xinit, and xkbcomp are the minimal requirements.

Non-Multilib

Before building Xrx execute the following command in the top level of its source directory:

sed -i "/PLUGIN_CFLAGS=-I/s/-I.*$/'&'/" configure

Compile the package:

./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
make

Install the application.

make install

Multilib

32Bit

Before building Xrx execute the following command in the top level of its source directory:

sed -i "/PLUGIN_CFLAGS=-I/s/-I.*$/'&'/" configure

Compile the package:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++  ${BUILD32}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIG32 &&
make

Install the package:

make install

N32

Before building Xrx execute the following command in the top level of its source directory:

sed -i "/PLUGIN_CFLAGS=-I/s/-I.*$/'&'/" configure

Compile the package:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILDN32}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIGN32 &&
make

Install the package:

make install

64Bit

Before building Xrx execute the following command in the top level of its source directory:

sed -i "/PLUGIN_CFLAGS=-I/s/-I.*$/'&'/" configure

Compile the package:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++  ${BUILD64}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIG64 &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Semi-Automated Build

The semi-automated built assumes that you are using subdirectories as discussed in the introduction. It also assumes that the App-20101205.wget file is available in the base directory (xc). After entering the app subdirectory, unpack the source tarballs:

for i in *.tar.bz2; do
  tar xvf $i;
done

Build and install the applications in the App-20101205.wget file:

for dir in `sed "s/.tar.bz2//g" ../App-20101205.wget`; do
 cd ${dir} &&
 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++  ${BUILD32}" \
 ./configure $XORG_CONFIG32 &&
 make &&
 make install &&
 make distclean &&
 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++  ${BUILD64}" \
 ./configure $XORG_CONFIG64 &&
 make &&
 make install &&
 cd ..;
done

Next install the remaining Xorg Data files.
