This really needs overhaul. While doing this you should keep in mind that=20
the freedesktop.org libs could be used with xsrc as well (AFAIK=20
pkgsrc-XFree86 uses them by default). Naturally, those fdo.org libraries=20
have depenencies on other fdo.org libraries as well. This is why I think=20
that a per library version comparision will fail eventually.
For example: qt3-libs
If you take Xrender from pkgsrc, but not xcursor then end up with a library =

which is linked against Xrender two times, since xcursor also has a Xrender =

depency.


IMHO the way to go is to look at "library-sets/-groups" like eg. "XBASE",=20
"XEXTENSIONS". Where XBASE could identify xsrc, pkgsrc-XFree86 or fdo.org's =

X11 libs. XEXTENSIONS would be Xrender, fontconfig and friends, which could =

switch between fdo.org's extensions and the ones from xsrc's s. I doubt=20
that the xsrc-extensions are usefull, though. Since newer Gnome2/KDE3 apps=20
start to depend or already depend on the (newer) fdo.org versions.
