#33023: xorg-server: X11.app crashes on launch ---------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: ryandesign@… | Owner: jeremyhu@… Type: defect | Status: assigned Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: xorg-server | ---------------------------+------------------------ Comment (by JustinVallon@…): xkbcomp is listed in "leaves" (unrequested and not a dependent). Uninstalling it breaks the server, and gives the "Failed to activate core devices.". I replaced xkbcomp with a shell script that pauses, and it shows X11.app calling the following (as reported by ps, might have been truncated): /bin/sh /opt/local/bin/xkbcomp -w 1 -R/opt/local/share/X11/xkb -xkm - -em1 The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports: -emp > -eml Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server /tmp/server-4.xkm Replacing xkbcomp with a script "exit 1" causes the server to fail with the indicated message. Let me know if you want more info. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33023#comment:16> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
