Hi, |
| 16 |
/usr/X11/ is a link to ../usr and belongs to "x11-base/xorg-x11" not |
| 17 |
xorg-server (all ~x86 system here). All this with modular-X. |
| 18 |
For more info check: x-modular.eclass & xorg-server/xorg-x11 ebuilds. |
| 19 |
IMHO this could be done using EXTRA_ECONF"--suffix=/usr/X11" emerge ... |
| 20 |
-a (check the syntax here). |
| 21 |
But using this only for one/two packages probably will break |
| 22 |
compatibility with the other xorg sub-packages (unless quite a number of |
| 23 |
additional links/hacks are made). |
| 24 |
Search/check for older xorg/XFree versions, there *was* such layout. |
| 25 |
But i won't recommend trying this to anyone. |
