Where is X.org 7.1 ?

Hi,
I was so happy when I read the news X.Org 7.1 enters testing but after a pacman -Syu this one not propose me to upgrade X.org... Howeve, I'm certain to have testing repo in my pacman.conf

#
# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# NOTE: If you find a mirror that is geographically close to you, please
#       move it to the top of the server list, so pacman will choose it
#       first.
#
# To re-sort your mirror lists by ping/traceroute results, use the
# /usr/bin/sortmirrors script.  It requires the "netselect" package.
#

# See the pacman manpage for option directives

#
# GENERAL OPTIONS
#
[options]
LogFile     = /var/log/pacman.log
NoUpgrade   = etc/passwd etc/group etc/shadow etc/sudoers
NoUpgrade   = etc/fstab etc/raidtab etc/ld.so.conf
NoUpgrade   = etc/rc.conf etc/rc.local
NoUpgrade   = etc/modprobe.conf etc/modules.conf
NoUpgrade   = etc/lilo.conf boot/grub/menu.lst
HoldPkg     = pacman glibc
#XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget --passive-ftp -c -O %o %u

#
# REPOSITORIES
#   - can be defined here or included from another file
#   - pacman will search repositories in the order defined here.
#   - local/custom mirrors can be added here or in separate files
# 

[testing]
Server = ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/testing/os/i686

[current]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/current

[extra]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/extra

#[unstable]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/unstable

#[community]
# Add your preferred servers here, they will be used first
Include = /etc/pacman.d/community

# An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs

this is because xorg is also in stable repos. try pacman -Syu testing/xorg

Re: Where is X.org 7.1 ?

No, he has the testing repo first in the list, so that should not be necessary.

Spack, do

pacman -Ss xorg-server

You should get this:

testing/xorg-server 1.1.1-1
    X.Org X servers
current/xorg-server 1.0.2-3
    X.Org X servers
current/xorg-server-utils 1.0.2-2
    X.Org utilities required by xorg-server

If you don't see this, post the response. If you do see it, try

 pacman -Sy xorg-server

and see what happens.

Yep, it's running. Xorg 7.1 hits current a few days ago.
