Hi again
Hi Fabio
Package xlibre-server
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=xlibre-server
does have this for 'conflicts' and 'provides':
- conflicts=('xorg-server' 'nvidia-utils<=331.20' 'glamor-egl'
'xf86-video-modesetting')
- provides=('X-ABI-VIDEODRV_VERSION=28.0' 'X-ABI-XINPUT_VERSION=26.0'
'X-ABI-EXTENSION_VERSION=11.0' 'x-server')
So it conflicts with 'xorg-server', but does not provide it.
Does XLibre provide a compatible Xorg server implementation?
Is it current latest tagged/released version 25.0.0.8 a compatible Xorg
server able to run all the same packages as Arch Linux xorg-server package?
Is there a transparent transition path, uninstalling xorg-server and
installing xlibre-server and everything will work like before?
What will happen if a user keeps xf86-* or xorg-* packages from the
official repositories along with xlibre-server?
Our devs have tried to convince the maintainer to correct this, but he
does not want to fix it.
Your devs has expressed some thoughts I'll discuss later.
Also, the correct package name is not xlibre-server but
xlibre-xserver, as can be seen via url
https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/releases/tag/xlibre-xserver-25.0.0.8,
but the maintainer also does not agree with us.
This is final decision which WILL NOT decide if the package will be
deleted or not. In the case the package should be renamed, the
xlibre-server maintainer will first obtain xlibre-xserver and later I'll
merge xlibre-server into that, if it will be the case.
