Xorg-server 1.5RC6 (1.4.99.906) enters tesing. This version of xorg-server includes input hotplugging using hal, better EXA support and less memory usage. Note that this version requires an upgrade of all videodrivers. All videodrivers shipped with X.Org have been rebuilt to reflect this change. Nvidia drivers don't seem to need a rebuild, while AMD's catalyst drivers don't support the new X.Org version. Fglrx users should not upgrade to this version.
Please give this version of X.Org an extensive test run and report bugs.
OK, this is not a bug report and I have not even tested it yet, but reading the PKGBUILD I found that for some reason a file ( /usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so ) is created by the scriptlets; in this way pacman doesn't know which package owns it. I have to admit it's a pretty minor annoyance, since it is removed by the post_remove function, but it seems to me an useless complication. Unless I'm missing something, you can get rid of the xorg-server.install file and put: ln -sf libwfb.so.1.4 ${pkgdir}/usr/lib/xorg/modules/libwfb.so at the end of the PKGBUILD.
