Integration issues:


Are you meaning that livna-config-display should be used instead of
system-config-xselector or Xgl-settings?

Anyway a graphical application to switch is not necessarily required
for the review of this package. However, it would be nice to have
instructions on how to enable Xgl (in gdm, xdm) manually by editing
the relevant config files, with command line options that are standard, 
also with reference to the other packages that allow to set up Xgl 
(livna-config-display, system-config-xselector and/or Xgl-settings).
This could be explained in a file named README.dist for example (it is 
better to avoid using 'Fedora' such that it is easier to reuse the
spec file).

The current README.Fedora should certainly be renamed along 
README.noXgl since it is basically the noXgl documentation.

It is wrong to call system-config-xselector to set things automatically.
The user should do it himself.

It is also wrong to depend on a Xgl selector package.

I am not sure, but shouldn't xorg-x11-server-Xgl depend on 
xorg-x11-server?


Packaging issues:

First issue is that the way (the command) to get the source is 
lacking. See:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/SourceURL

The BuildRequires: libxkbui-devel doesn't exist on rawhide.

Also the build fail on rawhide:
checking for GL... yes
Creating destination directories for mesa module ... 
   error:   Source directory /usr/share/mesa/source/src/mesa/array_cache does
not exist
configure: error: Failed to link Mesa source tree.  Please specify a proper path
to Mesa sources, or disable GLX.

$ rpm -q mesa-source
mesa-source-7.1-0.28.fc9.i386
