Chap 35. Updating an existing system from sources (xorg?) Hello,
I have cvs updated src and xsrc source code in my RaspberryPi 4 tracking 10-stable. I have compiled the kernel and the userland following chapter35 guidelines. Everything is working fine, the sets were created and installed successfuly. Just for curiosity, I checked this: netbsd-raspa4$ ls -l /etc/mtree/set* -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 121526 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.base -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 22765 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.comp -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 444289 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.debug -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 723 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.dtb -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 55580 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.etc -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3065 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.games -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 9337 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.gpufw -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 13249 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.man -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 10116 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.misc -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 439 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.modules -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 656 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.rescue -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 47795 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.tests -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3786 Oct 27 21:12 /etc/mtree/set.text -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 214881 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xbase -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 675770 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xcomp -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 43073 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xdebug -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 12645 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xetc -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 784049 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xfont -r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 16073 Mar 28 2024 /etc/mtree/set.xserver netbsd-raspa4$ and I inmediately saw that there were sets with older dates. I believe that Xorg was not compiled neither installed. There are not instructions to do that in this chapter, only in this chapter xorg compilation is mentioned: 33. Crosscompiling NetBSD with build.sh 33.6. Building the X Window System I guess it can be done with this command but not sure: ./build.sh -x -j4 -O ../obj -T ../tools distribution is it the right way? How can I compile Xorg avoiding the compilation of the ready installed base system? Compiling base system distribution takes about 7 hours on the rpi4. Just to save time. I think that it would be a good thing for the novice (like me) to give xorg compiling hints in this chapter. Thanks so much. Ramiro.
