xtrans-1.4.0

[Douglas R. Reno]

REMOVES SUPPORT FOR SYSV ON PLATFORMS OTHER THAN SCO AND SOLARIS Not sure if that directly affects SysV in the way I think it does, but I'm not sure.

xtrans is a library of code that is shared (but is *not* a shared library)
among various X packages to handle network protocol transport in a modular
fashion, allowing a single place to add new transport types.  It is used
by the X server, libX11, libICE, the X font server, and related components.

This release drops a bunch of dead code, including support only used by
lbxproxy and pre-1.4.0 versions of libX11, as well as support for obsolete
SysV x86 platforms. It also provides some bug fixes & other maintenance work.

I don't think it uses SYSV in the way we think it does. There is basically no build here. It installs:

./opt/xorg/include/X11/Xtrans:
Xtrans.c  Xtrans.h  Xtransint.h  Xtranslcl.c  Xtranssock.c  Xtransutil.c  transport.c

./opt/xorg/share/aclocal:
xtrans.m4

/opt/xorg/share/doc/xtrans:
xtrans.xml

./opt/xorg/share/pkgconfig:
xtrans.pc

Other code includes the .c and .h files. I think the SYSV refers to really old stuff no longer in use. For example, AT&T Unix SVR4 ​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNIX_System_V

I'd just downloaded and diff'd this before I saw Bruce's reply. The changes which mention sysv are all in config.guess and config.sub. I would say they are dropping support for "real" unix sysv systems.

I can update all the Xorg libraries at once. Waiting to see if there are any more.

Fixed at revision 21348.
