I recently had the pleasure of compiling X from CVS. Here is a list of the patches I did NOT have to delete:
002_xdm-fixes.diff 026_neomagic_dga_fix.diff 003_xfs-fixes.diff 200_alpha_GLX_align_fix.diff 005_rgb.txt_in_etc_X11.diff 350_mips_compiler_h.diff 006_XftConfig_in_correct_place.diff 351_newport_range.diff 007_SECURITY_makedepend_safer.diff 900_debian_config.diff 008_doc_extensions_fix.diff 901_Wraphelp.c.diff 009_xf86config_manpage.diff 903_debian_system.twmrc.diff 010_xdm_use_startAttempts_on_SIGTERM.diff 904_debian_xinitrc.diff 012_fix_cyrillic_font_aliases.diff 905_debian_xdm.diff 013_do_not_build_some_specs.diff 906_debian_xfs.diff 016_manpage_link_fixes.diff 907_debian_xterm.diff 018_s3virge_mx_console_corruption_fix.diff 908_debian_no_non-free_fonts.diff 024_debug_xform_ia64_build_fix.diff 999_arm_m68k_debug_elfloader.diff 025_dri_directory_mode_fix.diff 999_xtrans_debug.diff They will be fuzzy. Disable the check. I had problems with building the SuperProbe manpage. Remove its reference from the Imakefile (Branden can tell you which one if he keeps IRC logs). The manifest check will fail. Comment that out too. If anybody wants I can make the i386 debs available. The source tree is a mess (I learned the above by trial and error) so I do not plan to offer it. If nobody is interested in the binaries I will delete them soon to conserve precious disk space.
