Xorg-server 1.16+ no CentOS 7

Question

Devido a um bug de acessibilidade eu não posso usar o Xorg-server 1.13 até 1.15. Eu vejo que o CentOS 7 usa 1.15.0 . Existe alguma maneira de usar um servidor Xorg posterior no CentOS 7?

O Fedora 23 tem o servidor Xorg 1.18.0, existe alguma maneira de usar o servidor Xorg do Fedora em CentOS, considerando que o Fedora é praticamente um testbed para o que mais tarde irá para o RHEL e o CentOS?

    

Answer 1

Você pode usar pacotes fedora se as dependências das bibliotecas não forem alteradas entre o que o rhel tem e o que o fedora tem (slim chance), já que o RedHat 7 é baseado no Fedora 19.

Você pode tentar reconstruir os pacotes necessários do fedoras srpms em uma máquina RHEL7.

EDIT:

Então eu queria saber se é possível recompilar o xorg mais recente para o el7 (eu não tentei instalar pacotes do fedora, já que eu suspeito que isso seja um beco sem saída).

Para minha surpresa, consegui fazê-lo. Eu instalei apenas o rpms resultante em um contêiner docker, não fiz nenhum teste nem iniciei um servidor para ver se funciona.

EDIT2:

Adicionado comandos para também construir todos os pacotes libX. Eu não consegui reconstruir o mesa (muito trabalho, já que ele precisa de um novo pacote de clang e outras coisas também)

Este é o script que eu usei para fazer as compilações. Tudo foi feito em um contêiner docker:

docker run --rm -it _your_container_ bash

#!/bin/bash

rm -f /etc/yum.repos.d/*

# I built packages from rawhide, you should use fedora23 probably
# we need yum-plugin-priorities and priority=1 for srpm repo
# if you use oracle linux, remove centos repo
#  and add oracles ol_latest and ol_optional

Answer 2

Tenho o prazer de informar que o CentOS 7-1511 usa o servidor Xorg 1.17.2 , o que não sofrem de o bug de acessibilidade . Portanto, essa versão pode ser usada sem correção.
