[Bug 1400626] Re: Please backport xtrans, libdrm, x11proto-{fonts, core} packages for 14.04.2

 

Hello Maarten, or anyone else affected,

Accepted xorg into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/1:7.7+1ubuntu8.1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  In order to upload the new xorg-server we need to backport the following packages from utopic:
  libdrm
  x11proto-core
  x11proto-fonts
  xtrans

  libdrm 2.4.52-1->2.4.56-1 seems to have the following changes:
  - Hides private symbols from all libdrm libraries
  - fixes MSAA on Hawaii (radeon).
  - Adds cherryview pci-ids (intel).
  - Makes libdrm-nouveau threadsafe with concurrent access to the drm fd.
  - Fixes to exynos and freedreno.
  - Enables building libdrm-freedreno1 and libdrm-exynos1

  x11proto-core's main change appears to be changing from the 'pointer' type to 'void *':
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873109/x11proto-core_7.0.24-1_7.0.26-1.diff.gz

  x11proto-fonts' main change is the same as x11proto-core, but the documentation is reformatted too:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873038/x11proto-fonts_2.1.2-1_2.1.3-1.diff.gz

  xtrans seems to have 2 minor changes, increase default unix pipe size and add support for systemd socket activation:
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/173873112/xtrans_1.3.2-1_1.3.4-1.diff.gz

  xorg needs to be slightly updated, to allow xserver-xorg to provide
  the unrenamed lts-utopic, and to allow xorg to be installed with the
  renamed xorg-server.
