Re: Tracking XFree86 CVS on a Potato system
Dear Seth,
Thank you very much for your advice.

I am aware of Charl's packages.
The issue is that I want to *litterally* track XFree86 CVS. I want to
be able to say ``cvs diff'' when I'm working on XFree86.
Unless someone has better ideas, then, I guess I'll install Charl's
packages and then overwrite them with my own binaries (compiled from a
checked out CVS source tree).

It's a devel box, which is exactly why it needs to run a stable
distribution :-)
(When I see a bug in XFree86, I want to be fairly certain it's an
XFree86 bug, not a but in some other package.)
Regards,
Juliusz
