xtrace, an X11 protocol tracing package that is already available in Debian is
now also available in updates-testing for F20 and Rawhide.
xtrace-1.3.1-5.fc20 newpackage testing 2014-03-30
This is used by running a program under xtrace, eg:
xtrace xterm
The xtrace program then acts as a dummy/proxy X server to the program it runs,
setting DISPLAY appropriately. It can also be run as a standalone proxy for
processes to connect to:
xtrace -D :9
The output appears on stderr or can be dumped into a file. It looks like:
