Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Here are the instructions that will go into the book. Now, just need some
text to explain it...
{{{
install -v -m755 -d \
/etc/X11/{app-defaults,fs,twm,xdm,xinit,xkb,xsm} &&
install -v -m755 -d $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11 &&
for link in \
/etc/X11/{app-defaults,fs,twm,xdm,xinit,xkb,xsm}
do
ln -sv $link $XORG_PREFIX/lib/X11
done
}}}
Cards, Options, and Xcms.txt were left alone, for two reasons. First,
they are files and can't be symlinked before they are installed, and
second they should probably be left as is because they were there only
from the single-tree build and look as if they should be in share/.
Following on Alexander's comment above, the $XORG_PREFIX/share/X11/xedit
directory contains only lisp routines, it's not likely that they belong in
/etc/X11 either. I believe that they should remain in share. Additional
comments?
