patches reviewing -- Road to xfree86 4.2.0



Hi,

 I wish to some kinds of help for transition to xfree86 4.2.0 after
woody release.  I've started `patch reviewing (and test build)' to
transition from xfree86_4.1.0 to xfree86_4.2.0.

 I think that xfree86_4.2.0 to merge into woody at this timing
is very bad idea. I compleatly agree Branden Robinson at this point.

 Yes, we should focus to ``RELEASE Debian GNU/Linux 3.0'' :-)

 But changes between xfree86 4.1.0 and 4.2.0 are very very big,
so starting some kinds of work for transition to xfree86 4.2.0
at this timing is good idea, I think.


 I've done reviewing all of the patches included in xfree86_4.1.0,
and generate test .deb package, these are first conclusion (and
some Question to Branden Robinson):

About xfree86_4.2.0.orig.tar.gz

  XFree86 4.2.0 is now include TTF version of B&H font, but the
 license is DFSG non-free, I think. So B&H .ttf fonts are dropped
 from .orig.tar.gz (likes some Type1 fonts)

 Q:
  Is this OK?

patch
  #000_stolen_from_HEAD*:

 These patches are merged into upstream 4.2.0-branch.


patch
  #009, #013, #016, #021, #022, #026, #028, #029, #034,
  #035, #037, #038, #047, #049, #053. #250, #301, #302,
  #303, #308, #309, #350

  These patches are already merged into upstream.


patch:
   #001, #002, #003, #011, #030, #032, #039, #045, #056,
   #058, #061, #063, #065, #068, #070, #100, #311, #400,
   #801, #908

  These are needed some kind of cleanup to apply.

patch:
   #023

  xc/util/patch was dropped from upstream source tar ball,
  so this patch is needed.


PEX5 and XIE was obsoleted:

  libPEX5, libXIE and related header files, PEX5 fonts,
  Xserver modules for PEX5/XIE  will be dropped from
  xlibs, xlibs-dev and xlibs-dbg, xserver-xfree86.
  xfonts-pex package will be dropped.

  Q:
    We should provide the package include only 
    libPEX5.so.* and libXIE.so.* (e.g. xlibs-obsoletes)
    for very old programs?

New libraries are added:

 libXTraps.so.1.0
 libXrandr.so.6.0

  Q:
   These will build as shared library in the default setting.
   Is this OK?

 libXvMC.a
 libfontenc.a

New programs are added:

 luit
 xtrap*
 xrandr*
 and related manuals.

  Q:
   What package should contains these?



 First test build packages and sources are able to download from
the URL bellow:

 primary:

   http://hanzubon.jp/Linux/Debian/XFree86-4.2.0/source
   http://hanzubon.jp/Linux/Debian/XFree86-4.2.0/i386

 mirror:

   http://people.debian.org/~ishikawa/XFree86-4.2.0/source
   http://people.debian.org/~ishikawa/XFree86-4.2.0/i386


 These are **NOT** apt ready. Because these are TEST builds,
not for use. If you understand what these are, please download,
test and comment :-)

 *** DON'T ASK ABOUT THESE PACKAGES to Branden Robinson ***

 *** AND DON'T ASK ME ABOUT THESE PACKAGES DIRECTLY ***

 I wish to discuss about these on this list.

TODO:
 - More cleanup patches
 - Test on non i386 architectures
    already started to build on alpha, powerpc, m68k sparc, hppa
    (I have these architecture machines)
