Many thanks. I will have a try.

The one you are most familiar with is usually the best choice. If you are creating a Linux From Scratch system, there is significant work in getting all the required tools installed. You will basically do all the work the distros are doing. Ubuntu and Fedora are popular distros and plenty of users. I have read that module developers guide, but it is not detailed like what LFS book does. Correct, on the other hand it is sufficient to build from source from the main distros. The main source of build errors are missing/back level tools. I added the list of tools needed in this wiki: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RequiredPackages Building is done continuously on various workstations and their build logs may help: http://tinderbox.freedesktop.org/ I have very little info from which to make recommendations.

I'll fix the script. configure.ac:39: the top level configure:5033: error: possibly undefined macro: m4_ifval If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. configure:5037: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CHECK_FILE autoreconf: /tool/util/.package/autoconf/2.68/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 build.sh: "autogen.sh" failed on doc/xorg-docs build.sh: error processing module/component: "doc/xorg-docs" There maybe some tooling packages missing or incomplete. I don't know which distro/OS you are using. There is typically 20+ packages to install that aren't installed by default. It's hard to tell from build errors. It looks like you are starting to build from source on a clean system. Take a look at this wiki: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide#RequiredTools http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RequiredPackages Thanks.

Any workaround? Building makedepend was moved up as it is needed by "mesa". It looks it was moved too early, before "proto". In build.sh, can you move building makedepend after "build proto" and check if it corrects the problem? This problem will only happen on a very clean system. if [ X"$MODFILE" = X ]; then # We must install the global macros before anything else build util macros build font util # Required by mesa build util makedepend build_doc build_proto build_lib build_mesa Many thanks.
