It's a pain on *BSD where python is not part of the base system. To be able to let users build X on a base system with no additional packages installed, we provide pre-generated c-code for xcb. So only developers who want to touch the xml files need to install python. -- Matthieu Herrb _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.freedesktop.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
