1 With x11-base/xorg-server-0.99.1-r5, the missing sparc-specific source
2 files are no longer missing, and one build cycle runs successfully.
3
4 However, suppose that you want to build it more than once, and suppose
5 you are using the 'eselect opengl ...' version of opengl-update:
6 x11-base/opengl-update-3.0.0. Then, the symbolic
7 links /usr/include/GL/gl.h -> /usr/lib/opengl/xorg-x11/include/gl.h etc.
8 (all but 2 of the 7 required) disappear, and a second build of
9 xorg-server fails with "cannot include GL/glxproto.h - type messages.
10
11 In other words, the header files provided by the glproto and mesa
12 packages are not available to xorg-server when it builds (nor to
13 anything else which expects them to be in /usr/include/GL...).
14
15 eselect-opengl establishes glext.h, glxext.h, but I cannot find how the
16 rest of the GL/... headers are supposed to get setup.
17
18 If you create the links by hand, everything seems to build fine. (But
19 after each build or xorg-server, if you want to rebuild for some reason,
20 you need to reestablish the links, because the opengl-update helpfully
21 removes them.)
22
23 At least, this is the case on my system, and as I mentioned previously,
24 everything is happening in a chroot environment where in theory, the
25 only X11 installed comes from X modular.
