Package: xlibs-dev
Version: 4.2.1-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream patch

This patch is an effort to start moving X into a more architecture
agnostic source code.

I am going to join the xpert list and see if why they don't use exact
integer types. This may kill the need for most or all of the
architecture dependencies in Xmd.h

thanks

The patch suggested in this bug has not been applied upstream in the
four years since it was suggested, and no longer applies cleanly. It is
predominantly whitespace changes and syntactic edits with no semantic
difference. It does not fix any bugs with this package or those that
depend on it, as far as I can tell.

It seems to me that this patch should be cleaned up and submitted
upstream if it's worthwhile, and should not be applied by Debian unless
and until it appears in an upstream release. So I'm marking this bug
wontfix and closing it.
