Jörg, I have the kit and Schillix-0.2 so just need time to review.
If someone already has X built for you then just tar up the binaries/libs and post them on the mirrors. I have tarballs of X 6.8.2 (CVS) compiled as well as in Solaris package formats. Take your pick. if you have a natively built one already then let us get it our there so we can test it and move on. If rebuilding Schillix with X included appeals, then better do it now with the new patches and files than wait. Schillix 0.2.1 ?!?! I beleive it should really be that simple with any of these distros. Anyhow, I'm looking about 4,000 GNU packages that can work universally with either Schillix and other distros. Possible? Mainly, to evaluate Sun Studio 10 in various build situations. So, once the debating is over... can we review the autobuild systems and how we can use Schillix to meet that goal?? ;o> ~Ken Mays --- Joerg Schilling <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ken mays <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > I have X.org 6.8.2 libraries, binaries, and header > > packages built for Solaris 8/9/10 (x86/SPARC) over > at > > Blastwave.
