My plan is to simply put that work on the package installer loading new files into the xkb directories. A simple post-install hook that removed all of the files in the server's cache directory should make that work I could make the in-server caching optional if you like, either command line flag or configure option. Attempting to figure out which files are relevant to stat seems like a huge effort. > Aside from that, it's our best hope short of forking xkbcommon, adding > back some of the bits we removed as pointless, and smashing that into > the server (volunteers?), so, why not. Even then, this avoids the cost of compilation, which isn't insignificant. So, I think we want this regardless. Directly compiling the file in the X server would avoid a whole pile of security drama, otherwise it doesn't seem like a huge win (at least according to the profiles I've seen). -- [email protected]
