Building xorg-server fails

Hi everyone

I think I'm having the same problems as this guy: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12509
To make sure that the suggested patch (from here: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12858) is really working I tried to rebuild xorg-server.
But I just get some strange errors and I can't figure out where they come from
I did 'make' in the folder that failed during makepkg
Here's the output: http://phpfi.com/277365

My system is completely up to date (I also tried building it after the core-update but no success)

I'd appreciate any help
Thanks in advance
XazZ

Re: Building xorg-server fails

Yep. it should work with --disable-config-hal .
Btw, thats how the patch was really commited :
http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/x … 1b4c747727

You should be able to download this link and use it as a patch directly.

If it works, open a bug report on bugs.archlinux.org with a link to the upstream bug report 12858, and with the link above (the patch that was actually commited).

Re: Building xorg-server fails

Hi

Big thanks zhiwen and shining
It seems that this fixed my problem - but I'll test it one day before I open a bug report
The only problem after the rebuild is that some of my fonts were changed (I had to change them back in the KDE Control Center)

Big thanks again
