Whilst we're on this topic, how about a XFree86-SDK package (please excuse
me if this is already done) so that new drivers (e.g. linuxwacom) that
depend upon parts of the XFree86 source tree can be built easily?
Umm, this is buildable from the src.rpm but is a bit borked - make
depend doesn't work so you cant just run mkmf script, I think the via
driver
Just change the first %define build_sdk to 1 and rebuild the rpm :)
I've also found some stuff needs more than the sdk (synaptics and vnc)
so in addition I've a bug out for XFree86-source as well, though I'm not
an X hacker so it may be possible to build with the sdk using some voodo
but the synaptics driver looked to need headers not available with
-devel and -sdk. VNC also ships the whole XFree86 tgz in the src.rpm atm
which sucks so using a -source package and lndir worked well for me.
