Switch FreeBSD CURRENT to use the new xorg stack (WITH_NEW_XORG=) [0]
If the old xorg stack is still needed, it is possible to add WITHOUT_NEW_XORG= to /etc/make.conf to get the old version. Update several xorg related ports, including: x11/libxcb 1.9.1 -> 1.9.3 graphics/libdrm 2.4.46 -> 2.4.50 x11/pixman 0.30.2 -> 0.32.4 x11/xkeyboard-config 2.9 -> 2.10.1 x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard 1.7.0 -> 1.8.0 Fix dissapearing cursor in xf86-video-vmware [2] Stagify all x11@-owned ports Bump portrevisions for xf86-* ports due to xserver version change. Fix fallout from updates where needed. Thanks to: all testersi, bdrewery and the FreeBSD x11@ team exp-run by: bdrewery [1] PR: ports/184684 [1], ports/181385 [2] Submitted by: Douglas Carmichael <dcarmich@dcarmichael.net> [2] Approved by: portmgr (bdrewery), core (jhb) [0]

+ AUTHOR: zeising@FreeBSD.org
+
+ The default xorg version has been switched on FreeBSD CURRENT.
+
+ To upgrade graphics/libGL, graphics/dri and related MESA ports, it is
+ neccessary to first remove the old versions of those ports.
+ No special upgrade procedure is needed for xorg port but it is
+ necessary to recompile all xorg drivers (xf86-*) and other ports that
+ depend on the xserver version, including
+ emulators/virtualbox-ose-additions. Portrevisions have been bumped
+ where needed, but users of drivers not in the ports tree will need to
+ recompile those.
+
+ If it is important to stay on the old versions, it is possible to
+ specify WITHOUT_NEW_XORG= in /etc/make.conf to get the old xorg
+ distribution.
+
+ To update:
+
+ # pkg_delete -f libGL-\* dri-\*
+ or
+ # pkg delete -f libGL dri
+ followed by
+ # portmaster -a
+ or
+ # portupgrade -a
+
