[c03b9f3] | 16 | <title>X Window System Environment</title>
|

[f45b1953] | 17 |
|
---|
[e77976f] | 18 | <para>This chapter contains instructions to build and configure a graphical
|
---|
[275005c] | 19 | user environment.</para>
|
---|
[fd7e0ed6] | 20 |
|
---|
[77f78a5] | 21 | <para><application>Xorg</application>, in addition to clearing up some
|
---|
| 22 | licensing issues with <ulink url="http://www.xfree86.org/">XFree86</ulink>,
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 23 | introduced a completely auto-tooled build for the X Window system. This
|
---|
[77f78a5] | 24 | means that the packages build and install using the conventional
|
---|
| 25 | <command>configure</command>, <command>make</command> and <command>make
|
---|
| 26 | install</command> commands, as opposed to a proprietary build system that
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 27 | required hand editing of configuration parameters in a C-like syntax.</para>
|
---|
[77f78a5] | 28 |
|
---|
| 29 | <para><application>Xorg</application> also brought with it a modular build
|
---|
| 30 | system. While this separation into modules resulted in full control of the
|
---|
| 31 | features available to the X server on any given installation, it also made
|
---|
| 32 | the installation more tedious as it requires installing more than 100
|
---|
| 33 | different packages to obtain a functional X Window environment. Most large
|
---|
| 34 | commercial distributions have elected to use <application>Xorg</application>
|
---|
| 35 | over the <application>XFree86</application> distribution due to both
|
---|
| 36 | licensing issues and the increased functionality provided by it over
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 37 | <application>XFree86</application>. With the modular build system, also came
|
---|
| 38 | incremental updates to individual packages. The distribution of
|
---|
| 39 | <application>Xorg</application> is given a release number by the developers,
|
---|
[5287b7c] | 40 | in this case Xorg-&xorg-version;, and is referred to as the "katamari" by
|
---|
| 41 | the upstream developers.</para>
|
---|
| 42 |
|
---|
| 43 | <!--
|
---|
| 44 | <para>Additionally, the BLFS book appends a build number
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 45 | to the end of version string to indicate whether a group of incremental
|
---|
| 46 | updates has been applied, while still retaining the versioning scheme of the
|
---|
[5287b7c] | 47 | upstream developers. For instance, Xorg-&xorg-version;-1 would indicate that
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 48 | this is the 1st release, and is consistent with the katamari, while
|
---|
[5287b7c] | 49 | Xorg-&xorg-version;-2 would indicate that individual package updates have
|
---|
[e03aea8] | 50 | been applied to the katamari.</para>
