I think it would be possible to introduce another <autotools> attribute that specifies a filename to execute, and the retval says if it is eligible. Then it might be possible that those modules don't appear in the modules list at all. The autotools attribute would ensure that that file to execute is a tracked file and not one accidentally put there. I think the possibility to enable/disable a module depending on external conditions is generally appealing. That would of course require such a file in the modules that don't build everywhere. For now I plan to improve the my.modules file, so that it contains corresponding comments, and include the necessary steps in a future setup tutorial. -- Greetings, Dirk _______________________________________________ [email protected]: X.Org development Archives: http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
