Nice. I'd like to see a gzipped Xorg log. > For the record, the "fixes" I had to do were as follows: > > 1. src/Makefile.am - the svn revision buildcomment needs an extra > \ before \n, otherwise the generated C macro spans 2 lines which > is a no no and kills the build. Hmm, when I add that extra backslash, a literal "\n" gets printed in the Xorg log instead of a newline, meaning the development build line gets concatenated with the next one, as expected, like this: (!!) (development build, at svn revision 499M)\n(II) resource... Maybe your shell does not understand the backticks? Maybe it needs $(...) instead of `...`? What's in your svnrelease.h after running make? > While hacking this I also encountered an assumption that > /bin/true exists - this is not so on OBSD, it's in /usr/bin, Would changing it to simply 'true' work for you? Hmm, why does it do this anyway? If chmod fails, something is wrong, and it should stop. > 2.

As far as I know /usr/lib/xorg is the standard place nowadays and most distros make a /usr/X11R6 -> ../usr symlink or similar. > 3.

Here it installs to /usr/local/man without a problem. Can you find out where it goes wrong for you? > If you want me to check build changes for OBSD compatibility I am > more than happy to help. We'd be happy to make any necessary changes, but apart from the /bin/true problem I don't see what to change.
