I told Brian and Dave we would try to build the core in /h/xwindows/X.V11R4 and then move it to /csri3/X.V11R4 once it seems ok. We will do the same deal as last time, turning off tracking on X and letting church and clients be the guinea pigs. The "blessed" location for the lndir'd source tree is /local/src/X.V11R4, so for the moment (on CSRI), this is a symlink to /h/xwindows/X.V11R4. Later, it will be a symlink to /csri3/X.V11R4. Once things "work" on CSRI, we will turn on tracking and ANT will build it for their machines. Configuration files should be altered to believe that TOPDIR is /local/src/X.V11R4. The master source is in /ai/lambda/X.V11R3. (Ken has exported /ai/lambda to dbs, dgps, csris, eecgs, and whites.) This MAY change, so it is strongly suggested that you use an lndir through a symlink such that /local/src/X.V11R4/SRC -> /ai/lambda/X.V11R4. There is a recursive shell script in xwindows@csri:bin/lnrel which can help with this. [N.B. Unlike lndir it takes ONE argument which is the FROMDIR, the TODIR is assumed to be ".". So for example: cd /local/src/X.V11R4 ln -s /ai/lambda/X.V11R4 SRC lnrel SRC or cd /local/src/X.V11R4 ln -s /ai/lambda/X.V11R4 SRC (mkdir mit ; cd mit ; lnrel ../SRC/mit) Also unlike lndir, lnrel makes REAL directories for RCS, so changes made in lndired copies (e.g. for local configurations) will NOT be shared. (Finally!) j.
