I think I have problem with man_db.conf
here I attach my man_db in txt and also printscreen /usr

did my man_db wrong?

You did not indicate if you changed man_db.conf by executing the command given in the book. If you didn't, which it looks like, then leave this file as is.

You say you continue, which is hopefully a bad choice of words........

As mentioned in post #25, this part seems to be missing:

Code:

export XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man --localstatedir=/var"

This should have been done in the first chapter of building X (this one). If that step was not done then you need to redo all of chapter 23, starting with Introduction to Xorg-7.6.

I'll repeat what I said in post #25: If you did not set the XORG_CONFIG variable, things are not build/installed correctly. I'm guessing that this is the reason for the error.

You do need to confirm or deny what was posted in the replies, otherwise we won't be able to help you.

Hope this helps.

happyrobo · 06-21-2011, 04:32 AM

i'm sorry druuna
now i have done the missing part

Code:

export XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man --localstatedir=/var"

but still found that error.

let me clear, so i want use standard prefix /usr as you suggest
so here the code in chapter Introduction to Xorg-7.6

in directory /sources

Code:

mkdir xc &&
cd xc

Code:

export XORG_PREFIX="/usr"

Code:

export XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --sysconfdir=/etc \
    --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man --localstatedir=/var"

Code:

cat > /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh << "EOF" &&
XORG_PREFIX="/usr"
XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX \
             --sysconfdir=/etc \
             --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man \
             --localstatedir=/var"
export XORG_PREFIX XORG_CONFIG
EOF
chmod 644 /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh

Code:

echo "${XORG_PREFIX}/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf
sed 's@/usr/X11R6@/usr@g' -i /etc/man_db.conf

is that rght druuna?or I made some mistake
please help me

No, that is not correct. You need to read and follow the book.

I'll repeat what I already quoted in post #22: If you've decided to use the standard /usr prefix, you can omit the remainder of this page. Otherwise, ....

This means you _don't_ do the rest of the page!

This is the last thing you do on that page:

Code:

cat > /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh << "EOF" &&
XORG_PREFIX="<PREFIX>"
XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX \
             --sysconfdir=/etc \
             --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man \
             --localstatedir=/var"
export XORG_PREFIX XORG_CONFIG
EOF

chmod 644 /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh

Please read carefully and follow the instructions.

    --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man --localstatedir=/var"

Code:

cat > /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh << "EOF" &&
XORG_PREFIX="/usr"
XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX \
             --sysconfdir=/etc \
             --mandir=$XORG_PREFIX/share/man \
             --localstatedir=/var"
export XORG_PREFIX XORG_CONFIG
EOF
chmod 644 /etc/profile.d/xorg.sh

# i have completed Xorg Libraries Dependencies (Required)

druuna · 06-21-2011, 11:35 AM

Hi,

After you executed the above, did you redo all the packages leading up to Xorg Libraries?

The X related manual pages don't have anything to do with your current problems.

Are you using the wget files (additional downloads) and the Installation Scripts as provided in the user notes?

The wget file holds all the files and are in the order in which they need to be installed, the script will do all the work for you and will stop when something goes wrong. It must be run from the same terminal where the XORG_PREFIX and XORG_CONFIG variable are set.

Id love to but as I,m only a beginner as well I have Alot to learn so I watch every posting Stick with it read and follow book exactly IF I CAN I WILL TRY TO HELP

in chapter Xorg Libraries

Code:

case $(basename "$PWD") in
libXfont-[0-9]* )
                 ./configure $XORG_CONFIG --disable-devel-docs
                 ;;
   libXt-[0-9]* )
                 ./configure $XORG_CONFIG \
                     --with-appdefaultdir=/etc/X11/app-defaults
                 ;;
              * )
                 ./configure $XORG_CONFIG
                 ;;
esac &&
make

I found that I don't have /etc/X11/app-defaults, is that the causes of error?

I also check my man_bd.conf and there are still any <PREFIX>
ex:

Code:

MANPATH_MAP	<PREFIX>/bin		<PREFIX>/man
MANPATH_MAP	/usr/bin/X11		<PREFIX>/man
