YaST: SaX2

Since YaST has become open-source, I would love to see arch-packages for some of its components. The package-management and so on is obsolete since we have pacman, but what about SaX2? Is there a better app to configure X around? When I got my LCD-screen I installed SuSE just to get a fully working XF86Config. It would be great to see a pacman-package for it so I don't have to reinstall SuSE later. I guess I'm not the only one that would appreciate it.

Re: YaST: SaX2

I thought Novell had decided to license YaST under GPL. All The source rpms are at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/current/suse/src/

Re: YaST: SaX2

SaX2 is YaST-x11, so yes, its a part of YaST. I Think YaST bacame version 2 in SuSE 7 or something.

thanx for the info

do you know YaST good? any chance to make sax2 as pkg for arch? (is it really part of YaST or just standalone and part that can be compiled and run separately?)

Re: YaST: SaX2

sax2 rpm is available from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/current/suse/i586

It has a long list of dependancies but YaST does not appear to be amongst them.
