It would be useful to have the contents of all these new *-devel
packages somewhere online (Wiki?), ie. which libs and especially headers
are in which -devel package etc.
The rpms are on ftp://people.redhat.com/mharris/testing/xorg-modular-fc5
I encourage members of the Fedora community to create webpages and/or
tools to query/list information of this nature. The simple method
would be to use the binary rpms present there and create a custom
rpmdb from it in a manner similar to the redhat-rpmdb package, then
direct rpm to query for things from this custom database.
In general, for converting to modular X dependencies, you can query
an rpm package to find out what libraries the contents of the rpm
link to by doing:
rpm -qp --requires foo.i386.rpm
If "libX11.so.*" shows up, then you'll want to add to the spec file:
BuildRequires: libX11-devel
ditto for all libraries it uses.
Hope this helps.
