This patch should belong to the official PKGBUILD, imo.

Really? How is that?

It is still one of the main reasons people accidentally break ABIs.

Tell it to at least 16 people who use this package (judging by the number of votes). Some of them probably us it on several machines. But anyway, you seem to have a lot of spare time to comment on useless packages and patch PKGBUILDs yourself.

hussam commented on 2016-04-06 15:51 (UTC)

Why make a whole new package for just one patch? Just edit the official PKGBUILD, add the patch and recompile.

As a first step, as I mentioned below, try building the original xorg-server using ABS. This shouldn't be any different than building xorg-server-bug865 package from AUR (in terms of setuid bit on Xorg.wrap). If you have the same problem when building from ABS, then it is not a problem of this package. This is either a problem of your setup, or the problem of original xorg-server package. I will not deviate in ANY way from the original xorg-server package, except for applying that patch for bug865.

after build&install that, startx doesn't run. need to set SUID: sudo chmod u+s /usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg.wrap after that startx is running. this behaviour appears on any of the three my arch systems. if you want you could try to install arch on VBOX through the steps of installing to Xorg and change it to bug865 update. may be I'd skip or made some wrong operation that led to the loss SUID bit on building bug865 of X.

Not out of date, Det, yet.

kyak commented on 2016-01-17 08:50 (UTC)

You should report the issue to xorg-server package then. Still not sure why your particular system exhibits such behaviour.

If did build with --enable-install-setuid \ (is disabled by default) Xorg has SUID But if did build with --enable-suid-wrapper \ Xorg.wrap hasn't SUID.
