Xorg is going to start depending on libpixman soon - does anyone else
include this already or plan to?   (On my test box with vermillion_devel
installed I see /usr/include/firefox/libpixman/pixman.h but no library.)

If not, I guess I'll start planning to include in X.

Hi,

As a heads up, over the next few days I'll be adding a hard dependency
on the pixman library, which is available from a git repository on

         git.freedesktop.org/git/pixman

Then I am going to move code from the X server into this library. The
code in question is:

         - region code
         - compositing code from fb
         - trapezoid rasterization from fb

I don't expect any API or ABI changes from this as the pixman
datatypes are binary compatible and I'll leave the existing typedef
names in place.


Soren
