support xorg 1.20 #2

Closed nameless3 closed 6 years ago

path changed from /usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg to /usr/lib/Xorg

Earnestly commented 6 years ago

It appears that /usr/bin/Xorg is actually the same binary as /usr/lib/Xorg. Not only that but /usr/bin/X points to /usr/bin/Xorg now too.

There are no changelogs from upstream that I can see which explains this change yet so I'll have to read the commits.

This is pretty aggravating but Xorg isn't unknown for breaking things in backwards-incompatible ways.

Okay, this isn't going to be a hill I choose to die on. I'd suggest switching the exec /usr/lib/Xorg to just use exec Xorg so we fall back on PATH resolution.

Then remove the note about Xorg.wrap.

This should be the most portable approach and if older releases of Xorg have to deal with the wrap nonsense, they can modify /etc/X11/Xwrapper.conf instead.
