I run make as a user and then make install as root - same issue -
/usr/bin/Xorg isn't being installed suid root.
I would like to know if this is reproducable from others,just to satisfy
my curiosity.
Here is the relevant part of my log.
#-------------------------------#
test -z "/usr/bin" || mkdir -p -- "/usr/bin"
/bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c 'Xorg'
'/usr/bin/Xorg'
/usr/bin/install -c Xorg /usr/bin/Xorg
(cd /usr/bin && rm -f X && ln -s Xorg X)
#-------------------------------#
Anyway just to keep an eye on this.
Here is the problem, in hw/xfree86/Makefile...
install-exec-local: install-binPROGRAMS
(cd $(DESTDIR)$(bindir) && rm -f X && ln -s Xorg X)
# chown root $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/Xorg
# chmod u+s $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/Xorg
When I run configure as a regular user, the chmod is commented out. When
I run it as root, it is not. It's like this on both 1.0.1 and 1.0.2.
