Roll-your-own X packages

[Jules Bean <jules@jellybean.co.uk>]

Hi there,

I've recently built, and am now using, an XFree86 build from DRI CVS.
This greatly improves 3D performance on my card (a voodoo3).

Of course, it's a bit annoying running X out of /usr/local, so... how
hard would it be to build debian packages from it?  I understand that
the X packages are fairly complex :-) 

Alternatively, does Branden ever fold in DRI versions into his
packages? How long would I be in this unpackaged state before my local 
sid mirror had up-to-date packages?
