Hi,
I've been wondering what to do about the ancillary packages for X in
the cygwin distro.
X-startup-scripts:
I guess something needs to be done with this, if these scripts are the
normal way for starting the X server
Attached is patch for the xinit package, which adds the scripts
startxwin.bat, startxwin.sh, startxdmcp.bat in a rather simple-minded
way (these scripts have been updated to use the correct paths for a
modular X server)
X-startup-scripts would then become empty.
I'm not totally sure this is the right approach, though.
X-start-menu-icons:
This needs some attention as well to update the paths from /usr/X11R6/.
In a modular X world, though, it might make sense to do some refactoring
so this is a tool for adding/removing start menu icons which is used
in the specific package install/remove scripts, rather than installing
all the icons at once.
