--- Begin Message ---Source: xorg-server Version: 1.11.0-1 Severity: minor I do my own local builds of the X stack, and I have been noticing warnings like this when building the X server for a while: configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --disable-builddocs, --disable-xcalibrate Curious, I investigated a little: $ ./configure --help | grep -- "-docs" --enable-docs Enable building the documentation (default: yes) --enable-devel-docs Enable building the developer documentation $ ./configure --help | grep calibrate There is no output in the second case. Looking in debian/rules, I see confflags += \ [...] --disable-builddocs \ [...] --enable-mitshm \ [...] --disable-xcalibrate \ [...] It looks like the rules file has gotten a bit crufty over time, and "--disable-builddocs" should be replaced by "--disable-docs" and "--disable-devel-docs", and "--disable-xcalibrate" should be dropped. I left "--enable-mitshm" quoted there because './configure --help' doesn't mention such an option (instead it mentions "--disable-shm"), but reading the 'configure' script itself reveals that "--enable-mitshm" is correct (and there is no such thing as "--enable-shm"). Does the X Strike Force know anything about this last issue? Would you like me to report it upstream as a bug in the help text, or is it not a bug?
