I finally got around to this and it worked fine. Thanks Ragnar.
Now, how to add it to the book? AFAICT, there is only the github
version. I can download a .zip file from there, but I'm sure the md5sum
will change. I can create a tar.xz version on anduin easily enough.
The last change was
It uses cmake -- the only driver for xorg that does. Probably not a big
deal. But it seems to want to install in /usr/local even if
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/xorg is specified. I can investigate that
later. It only installs libvdpau_va_gl.so{,.1} anyway so a simple cp
would work for that.
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make check
cp -av libvdpau_va_gl $XORG_PREFIX/lib/vdpau/
I install in /usr, and -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr works fine for me.
Right. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$XORG_PREFIX works for those who don't
install in /usr.
There are two issues:
1. Where to put it? I can just add it to the libvdpau section or I can
create a separate section. I lean toward the libvdpau section.
Well, it is a backend for vdpau, so I would put it in video acceleration
section.
Yes, but as a separate page or combined with libvdpau? Since we already
combine libva-intel-driver with libva, I'll combine libvdpau_va_gl with
libvdpau.
2. Should I create a separate tarball? The last change was June 17, so
it is being updated. I lean toward just presenting the url and adding a
note about changing md5sums.
There are releases on the github page (click on releases button). The latest
one being:
https://github.com/i-rinat/libvdpau-va-gl/archive/v0.3.4.tar.gz
Almost perfect. The file name is weird in that it doesn't have the
package name as a part of the file name, but it expands to the
libvdpau-va-gl-0.3.4 directory. I'll note that.
I'll go ahead and update this later today with libvdpau-0.8.
