x11r7 modules not installing
I am new to buildroot, but so far it is great.
I am trying to build x11r7, but modules do not seem to get installed correctly. It seems the build script is calling 'make install-exec', which does not install the modules onto the target. Am I doing something wrong? Anyone know why my x11 modules are not getting installed?
Thanks,
Lane Brooks

Hi,
This is because X11 support is still experimental - you need to do manual work. Patches are welcome.

I changed Makefile.autotools.in to call 'install' instead of 'install-exec', and now the X11r7 modules are installing correctly (see patch). I am not sure if this introduces other issues with other packages or what the differences between install-exec and install are. Can anyone explain it?
