I decided to take this in baby steps :-) and try building "minimal +
X". X.org isn't building. I tried revision 30979, then updated to
30985, and haven't seen any relevant changes.
The hangup seems to be in xcb-proto; ./configure is complaining about
not finding Python. From 5-xcb-proto.err:
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.5... none
configure: error: no suitable Python interpreter found
Due to previous errors, no 5-xcb-proto.log file!
(Try enabling xtrace in the config to track an error inside the build system.)
--- BUILD ERROR ---
I see no log of any python build, and python is not present (at least
not on the path) in the final image.
Is there an easy way to make T2 build Xorg without XCB? (Actually, is
anything important actually *using* XCB yet?)
Or should I focus on forcing T2 to build Python? I'm not certain what
is the preferred way to handle dependencies in T2 right now, otherwise
I'd start trying to write a patch for the XCB package
Thanks for this note, likewise. I moved python from minimal-desktop to
minimal-xorg as I think we should build the standard set with XCB these
days:
Committed revision 31040.
You can build without XCB support (which also affects standard stuff like
libx11, ...), by simply not selecting the xcbproto and libxcb package.
However, in my opinion the standard examples should build with it
these days.
