[Fedora-ia64-list] The missing packages

Hi all, 

I looked into some of the missing packages today, below are the build
results and some analysis. The build system is Fedora 8 IA64 (the
current release) and I tested the packages both using "rpmbuild
--rebuild" and under mock.

* mono

This package was failed with a configure error which complain that
"library libunwind not found". 

Change the BuildRequire of libunwind to libunwind-devel can fix it.

-----------------------------------------------------------

* perl(BSD::Resource) and texinfo

Might be weird, but these two packages both can build cleanly on my
system. 

* libgnomeprint22

Built cleanly on my system, only one thing to mention:
A package, which is also missing from the "everything", need to be built
first to resolve the dependencies problem:
perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.005-3.fc8.src.rpm .

* xorg-x11-drv-*

All of the xorg-x11-drv-* packages here were failed with a similiar
problem: TS_Raw and TS_Scaled undeclared (some have a few other macros
or variables undeclared). 

The cause of these probably is a version miss match between the
inputproto headers and the drivers. The inputproto is a little too new
for these packages. The inputproto is part of the xorg-x11-proto-devel
package and a similiar disscussion about the issue could be found here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2007-January/021091.html. 

But I haven't managed to figure out the right way to solove this issue
yet. 

 
Yi
