Hello! I've been stuck installing the xorg-server-xdmx-dev using yay. It always throws an error that I don't have the required version of gl. I also tried using only the makepkg and following the instructions here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=251808.
Here's a part of the log with an stderr:

Welcome to the arch linux forums xcbdz. When you followed the instructions from https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=251808 where did you get stuck?
Offline
I checked the link then I compiled/installed this https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/pack … 7a8afee899. After that, I tried to install again the xorg-server-xdmx-dev package but the problem is still there. Same gl version error

That PKGBUILD is a split package including xorg-server-xdmx 1.20.6. Why would you want to install xorg-server-xdmx-dev 1.20.5 after that?
Offline
But the pkgbuild installed a xorg-server. I thought it's a patch for xorg-server that will fix the gl dependency. I tried building it again using makepkg -si. The pkgbuild mentioned in the link is outdated. xorg-server-xdmx has been dropped. So I'm trying to install the git version.

https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/pack … 7a8afee899 is from before xorg-server-xdmx was dropped building that commit will build xorg-server-xdmx.

Thank you! I tried it again and it installed xdmx successfuly! Thanks for clearing my mind!
