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 &&
mkdir -p app &&
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.

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

If you're building Compiz with GConf support the use the following for the configure command for Compiz:

./configure $XORG_CONFIG --with-gconf-schema-file-dir=/etc/gnome/gconf/schemas

Compile the package:

./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
make

Install the application.

Semi-Automated Build

These automated build instructions assume that you are using subdirectories as discussed in the introduction. You must also have an unaltered copy of Lib-20101205.wget in the main working directory (xc). This file lists each library in an order that ensures dependencies are satisfied.

Non Multilib

Install the protocol headers:

top=$PWD
cat ../App-20101205.wget | while read package; do
  packagedir=$(sed -e "s/\.tar\.bz2//" -e "s/\.tar\.gz//" <<< $package)

  cd $top || break;

  grep ^$packagedir$ done && continue;

  tar xvf $package &&
  cd $packagedir &&

  ./configure $XORG_CONFIG &&
  make &&
  make install &&

  cd .. &&
  rm -rfv $packagedir &&

  echo "$packagedir" >> done || break
done
rm done
