[Pkg-meego-maintainers] Bug#624335: uxlaunch is built upon Linux-only technologies

Package: uxlaunch
Version: 0.59-3
Severity: important

Currently, uxlaunch cannot be built on non-linux architectures (kfreebsd-*
and hurd-* come to mind), because it uses linux-only technologies:

$ cd uxlaunch-0.59/; grep -R linux/ *
xserver.c:#include <linux/limits.h>
xserver.c:#include <linux/vt.h>
xserver.c:#include <linux/kd.h>

The purpose of this bug is to document this problem, and hopefully finding
people to provide patches. :-)

Cheers, 

OdyX
