Introduction to Xorg Utilities

There are five utilities. Note that the download source, above is the base URL. Each could be downloaded individually, but it is probably easiest to use wget and append either *.bz2 or *.gz to the base URL to pull them all down to your system.

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://anduin.linuxfromscratch.org/sources/BLFS/svn/x/wget/util-7.1.wget
cd util
wget -B http://xorg.freedesktop.org/releases/individual/util/ -i ../util-7.1.wget

The utilities xorg-cf-files, imake, and gccmakedep should be built in order before the other utilities. Utilities lndir and makedepend can be built in either order.

Dependencies

Required

• pkg-config
• Protocol Headers

Non-Multilib

There is a hardcoded path in X11.tmpl for the Motif directory in the xorg-cf-files package. To correct this:

sed -i "s@/usr/X11R6@$XORG_PREFIX@" X11.tmpl

Install the xorg-cf-files package with the following commands:

./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
make install

Build the remaining packages with the standard build commands:

./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Semi-Automated Build

The semi-automated build assumes that you have created the subdirectories discussed in the introduction. After entering the utils directory, unpack the packages:

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

Make and install xorg-cf-files:

cd xorg-cf-files* &&
sed -i "s@/usr/X11R6@$XORG_PREFIX@" X11.tmpl &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIG32 &&
make install &&
make clean &&
sed -i "s@/usr/X11R6@$XORG_PREFIX@" X11.tmpl &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD64}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIG64 &&
make install &&
cd ..

Make and install imake:

cd imake* &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
./configure $XORG_CONFIG32 --with-script-preproc-cmd="gcc ${BUILD32} -E" &&
make &&
make install &&
mv -v ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/imake{,-32} &&
mv -v ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/xmkmf{,-32} &&
mv -v ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/ccmakedep{,-32} &&

mv -v ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/xmkmf{,-64} &&
mv -v ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/ccmakedep{,-64} &&
ln -sfv /usr/bin/multiarch_wrapper ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/imake &&
ln -sfv /usr/bin/multiarch_wrapper ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/xmkmf &&
ln -sfv /usr/bin/multiarch_wrapper ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin/ccmakedep
cd ..

Make and install the remaining packages:

for dir in gccmakedep lndir makedepend; do
cd ${dir}* &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \

Contents

Installed Directories:	${XORG_PREFIX}/lib/X11/config, ${XORG_PREFIX}/bin
Installed Programs:	imake, makedepend, lndir, ccmakedep, mergelib, revpath, makedirhier, makeg, cleanlinks, mkhtmlindex, xmkmf

Short Description

xorg-cf-files:	Provides templates, rules, and configuration information used to build Xorg components.
imake:	This is the include make program. Imake takes a template file (Imake.tmpl) and a prototype (Imakefile) and runs cpp on them producing a Makefile. It then optionally runs make on the Makefile.
gccmakedep:	Creates dependencies in makefiles. Same as make depend except it uses gcc.
lndir:	Used to create a copy of the a directory tree that has links for all non-directories.
makedepend:	Creates dependencies in makefiles.
