I don't think this will be easily possible. It's easy to checkout a particular tag in git. In xserver, for instance, $ git checkout xorg-server-1.5.1 And then build as you would from master. However, you'll have to figure out a mapping from the released tarball versions to the associated tag in git. I also don't know if git_xorg.sh or build.sh support building from particular tags. It might be possible with jhbuild. Building from tarballs should be much more straightforward if you just want to get Xorg-7.4. There are lots of scripts floating around the net, but here's one in particular: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/util/modular/tree/build-from-tarballs.sh -- Dan _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
