Bug#427921: xorg-server: FTBFS with mesa 6.5.3-1

[Laurent Bonnaud <Laurent.Bonnaud@inpg.fr>]

Package: xorg-server
Version: 2:1.3.0.0.dfsg-6
Severity: important


Hi,

I am trying to get a machine with an Intel 965G chipset to work with
Debian.  The xorg and mesa packages in etch do not work well enough.
With xorg 7.2 and mesa 6.5.3 (from experimental) the situtation is
much better.  Therefore I am trying to make an etch backport.  First I
backported the xorg-server build dependencies without any problem.

Unfortunately when I try to build binary packages from the xorg-server
it fails.  I duplicated the problem on a sid+experimental system: the
error message is the same:


$ fakeroot apt-get -b source xorg-server
[...]
checking for GL... yes
Creating destination directories for mesa module ...
   error:   Source directory /usr/share/mesa-source/src/mesa/array_cache does not exist
configure: error: Failed to link Mesa source tree.  Please specify a proper path to Mesa sources, or disable GLX.
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 1
Build command 'cd xorg-server-1.3.0.0.dfsg && dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc' failed.
E: Child process failed


If I copy the "array_cache" directory from a previous mesa version the
configure script fails a bit later with another missing include file.

Could you please do something about this problem ?
