Introduction to Xorg Applications
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 http://webpages.charter.net/weibullguy/docs/linux/wget_lists/app-7.1.wget && cd app && wget -B http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/app/ -i ../app-7.1.wget

Non-Multilib
A security vulnerability has been identified in the xdm, xf86dga, xinit and xload packages. Before building these packages with the commands shown below, be sure to apply the supplied patches. For xdm, this can be accomplished with with the following command:
patch -Np1 -i ../xdm-Template:Xdm-Version-setuid-1.patch
For xf86dga, the patch can be applied with the following command:
patch -Np1 -i ../xf86dga-Template:Xf86dga-Version-setuid-1.patch
For xinit, the patch can be applied with the following command:
patch -Np1 -i ../xinit-Template:Xinit-Version-setuid-1.patch
For xload, the patch can be applied with the following command:
patch -Np1 -i ../xload-Template:Xload-Version-setuid-1.patch
All of the applications can be built and installed the same way.
Compile the application.
./configure $XORG_CONFIG && make
Install the application.

Semi-Automated Build
The semi-automated built assumes that you are using subdirectories as discussed in the introduction. It also assumes that the app-7.1.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
Patch the four applications with security vulnerabilities:
cd xdm* && patch -Np1 -i ../xdm-Template:Xdm-Version-setuid-1.patch && cd ../xf86dga* && patch -Np1 -i ../xf86dga-Template:Xf86dga-Version-setuid-1.patch && cd ../xinit* && patch -Np1 -i ../xinit-Template:Xinit-Version-setuid-1.patch && cd ../xload* && patch -Np1 -i ../xload-Template:Xload-Version-setuid-1.patch && cd ..
Build and install the applications in the app-7.1.wget file:
for dir in `sed "s/.tar.bz2//g" ../app-7.1.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.
Contents
There are 92 Xorg application packages, each of which installs one or more files. This file contains a list of the directories, programs, and libraries installed by each of the Xorg applications.
The interested party can issue the following 'make install' command to create a complete list in the main working directory (xc) of files installed and their installed location:
make install 2>&1 | tee ../../<name_of_app>.files
