they come with the debian tree. Xfree86 uses "Doogie's build system", which basicaly means a pristine X is extracted into a temporary directory and then patches from debian/patches are applied. see debian/README for details. > Debian unstable contains > xfree86_4.2.1-6.diff.gz, note i'm working with Daniel Stone's unofficial Xfree86 4.3 packages: http://penguinppc.org/~daniels/xfree86/ I'm adding a note to the README to clarify this. > do you used this patch?? xfree86_*.diff.gz does only contain the files in debian/ directory, the patches against X are in debian/patches of the same dir. > (All patches should be against the official XFree86 sources available at > www.XFree86.org.) they're against whatever Daniel put in the upstream/ dir, which is mostly (but not exactly) "official" upstream source. -- Robert Millan make: *** No rule to make target `war'.
