https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D254557 --- Comment #2 from Jan Beich <jbeich@FreeBSD.org> --- Upstream split out cvt(1) and its static library into libxcvt and plans (see URL) to switch Xorg and Xwayland to it. xwayland-21.2.0 release (about half= a year from now) will contain the change but xorg-server-1.21.0 is "on ice", = so the current version will continue to use the internal copy. Wayland users t= hat want cvt(1) will need to install xorg-server, not just xwayland{,-devel} However, that version won't have a fix for https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/707 xwayland-devel will start using libxcvt as soon as upstream merges the chan= ge, mutter may follow some time later. This will have no impact on xorg-server = but it can (doesn't mean have to) try the same code *without* all the baggage a= nd risk a regular update brings. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
