DES isn't considered secure anymore for long time now, more and more platforms dropping DES from their RPC implementations, and even the one where it came from (Solaris) disabled it for a decade now. We have much better alternatives (eg. passing creds via Unix socket for local connections, ssh tunneling, MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1, ...), so it's unlikely anybody still really relying on it. Therefore, sweep it out. Signed-off-by: Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult <info@metux.net> Part-of: <https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/1453>
X server test suite This suite contains a set of tests to verify the behaviour of functions used internally to the server. = How it works = Through some automake abuse, we link the test programs with the same static libraries as the Xorg binary. The test suites can then call various functions and verify their behaviour - without the need to start the server or connect clients. This testing only works for functions that do not rely on a particular state of the X server. Unless the test suite replicates the expected state, which may be difficult. = How to run the tests = Run "make check" in the test directory. This will compile the tests and execute them in the order specified in the TESTS variable in test/Makefile.am. Each set of tests related to a subsystem are available as a binary that can be executed directly. For example, run "xkb" to perform some xkb-related tests. == Adding a new test == When adding a new test, ensure that you add a short description of what the test does and what the expected outcome is.
