Hello colisters: I've finished the installation of LFS 6.4 without problems.
I'm using BLFS-svn-20090102 in order to completing the installation of a server. Many packages installed without problems. I'm installing Xorg 7.4 with an eye on BLFS-svn-20090102 and the other on BLFS 6.3 (for example, I've installed the xorg-server-1.5.3 package with the --with-mesa-source=<dir to mesalib source> modifier as BLFS 6.3 reads). My big surprise rise when I've started to config X. I'm missing many X applications which has always been there. I've double checked the BLFS-6.3 app-7.2.wget list and the BLFS-svn-20090102 app-7.4.wget list. Both of them are similar to ftp.x.org dirs ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.2/src/app and ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/X11R7.4/src/app, but a lot of X applications are missing in X11R7.4. The X11R7.2 app. list have 92 items and the X11R7.4 list only 40.This is the whole list of missing applications in X11R7.4: bdftopcf (added by BLFS team to BLFS-svn-20090102 wget list) beforelight editres fonttosfnt fslsfonts fstobdf ico lbxproxy listres mkcfm oclock proxymngr rgb rstart scripts showfont twm (added by BLFS team to BLFS-svn-20090102 wget list) viewres xbiff xcalc xclipboard xclock (added by BLFS team to BLFS-svn-20090102 wget list) xconsole xdbedizzy xditview xdm xedit xeyes xfd xfindproxy xfontsel xfs xfsinfo xfwp xgc xinit (added by BLFS team to BLFS-svn-20090102 wget list) xkbprint xload xlogo xlsfonts xmag xman xmessage xmh xmore xphelloworld Obviously the problem is in Xorg and not in BLFS team. Anyone knows why this applications (many of them have been in X from many years ago and are very useful like xdm) have been «dropped» from X11R7.,4 official distro? I'm browsing in deep in the Xorg site but I couldn't find it. Thanks in advance.
