Description Peter Dyballa 2008-02-25 02:14:38 UTC
The configure script is not yet prepared for Mac OS X/Darwin, I just made an experimental change. The script now emits:

	checking whether to build Xvfb DDX... yes
	checking whether to build Xnest DDX... checking for XNESTMODULES... yes
	yes
	checking whether to build Xorg DDX... yes
<Mac OS X/Darwin change here>
	checking whether to build Xdmx DDX... checking for DMXMODULES... yes
	no
	checking for XORGCONFIG_DEP... yes

Obviously before line #31974 (pkg_failed=no) code like

	{ echo "$as_me:$LINENO: result: $XVFB" >&5
	echo "${ECHO_T}$XVFB" >&6; }

is needed. The same seems to be true for the Xdmx DDX case.

configure scripts are automatically generated from the configure.ac
using GNU autoconf - patches to the configure scripts themselves aren't
useful because of this - we need patches to configure.ac instead.
