Hi all!
After overhauling a rules file and being absent from my Hurd work for quite some time now I've finally managed to build the XFree 4.2.1-5 debs. These are now to be considered old since there is at least a -6, as well as the 4.3 effort by Robert. However, I thought I'd share my results and maybe gain some alpha-testers since I haven't tested them myself yet. That means you cannot bug me with questions if nothing works or totally wrecks havoc of your system. deb ftp://ftp.gnufans.org/gnu/hurd/debian unstable main There are still some things I need to fix before I can put an end to this effort (in the following order): * Move my "patches" to 4.2.1-6 * Get the man pages to build cleanly (currently missing) * Fix the shlibs.local * Try with Neals' pthreads * Fix the Packages[.gz] on the ftp.
