Last week I wanted to have a minimally configured xserver for build
related work. I did a brain dead job of compiling
an xserver with the minimum packages possible. No idea if it actually
works.

This is the list of packages, in build order, that will compile,
including their configuration options:


        util/macros 	
        font/util 	
        ./pixman 	
        proto/xproto 	
        proto/kbproto 	
        proto/xextproto 	
        proto/inputproto 	
        lib/libXau 	
        xcb/proto 	
        xcb/pthread-stubs 	
        xcb/libxcb 	
        lib/libxtrans 	
        lib/libX11 	
        proto/bigreqsproto 	
        proto/damageproto 	
        proto/fixesproto 	
        proto/fontsproto 	
        proto/inputproto 	
        proto/kbproto 	
        proto/randrproto 	
        proto/renderproto 	
        proto/videoproto 	
        proto/xcmiscproto 	
        proto/xextproto 	
        proto/xproto 	
        lib/libxkbfile 	
        lib/libfontenc 	
        lib/libXfont 	--disable-freetype
        lib/libpciaccess 	
        ./xserver 	--disable-glx --disable-dri --disable-composite --disable-record --disable-screensaver --disable-xres --disable-xinerama
        

This was done on Ubuntu Jaunty on AMD64. There may be non xorg
dependencies that are part of the distro that I am not aware of. You may
also want to disable document generation using --disable-specs
--disable-docs or --disable-devel-docs.

You can export PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=/dev/null to ensure you do not link to
dependencies you are not aware of.
 
This is the list of pkg-config files that I ended-up with at the end of
the build:
