I'm afraid I don't understand the question.
Compare the following:
Xorg 6.9.0:
create host.def
make World
make install install.man
The second command compiles, among other things, the "lnxagp.c" file
present in unpacked source. Compilation of all Xorg components is
automated by the Imakefile system. My point is that such a build already
counts as a scripted build (because we don't make each separate Xorg
component by hand), but the script is not made by us.
Xorg 7.0.0, scripted build:
edit the list of packages to download
wget -B ...
cat >build.sh <<"EOF"
(some script that builds and installs all packages in the list with the
same options, plus libdrm and Mesa)
EOF
sh build.sh
The build.sh script compiles, among other things, the "lnxagp.c" file
present in unpacked source. Compilation of all Xorg components is
automated by our script and autofoo.
So we are comparing automated build of Xorg components vs automated
build of Xorg components. What's the differende, from the educational
standpoint?
