>Description:
In the documentation:
pkgsrc/x11/modular-xorg-server/README.html
requires xcb-proto >= 1.13 and xcb-proto >= 1.4 (does not exist?)

in .buildlink/lib/pkgconfig/xrandr.pc
requires: xproto xrandrproto >= 1.5

error: package requires 1.6

problem is unclear: version does not exist?
libXrandr latest is 1.5.2
origin? x11-base/xorg-server-1.20.1 introduces xorg-proto-2018.4r1
configure.ac randrprot >= 1.6.0
/usr/X11R7/lib/pkgconfig/xorg-server.rc for 1.18.4 requires >= 1.5.0
pkg-info ? xorg-server not installed? (native is not a package?)


fix: 
requires: xrandrproto >= 1.5.2
configure.ac -> configure

missing:
work/.destdir/usr/pkg/include/xorg/vndserver.h
in PLIST and work/xorg-server-1.20.4/glx/

>How-To-Repeat:
modular xorg is needed for xf86-video-vboxvideo

native X is 1.18
modular X is 1.20

cd /usr/pkgsrc/x11/modular-xorg-server
make

(originally requires jan-2019 pkgsrc)
may-2019 pkgsrc requires xfont2 (but I didn't get that with update)

review doc file on web or repository (to fix the html file)
>Fix:
create a version of libXrandr with proto 1.6.0 ? (I could not find this)
add libXrandr(1.6.*) to pkgsrc (does this exist?)

add a patch to change xorg-server-1.20.4/configure.ac
RANDRPROTO="randrproto >= 1.5.0"

The resulting build works for me with netBSD kernel 8.0, but not with 8.99. Visible errors are random pixels or short lines, usually black.

Note: 1.20.* xorg has reorganized *proto* packages and the old packages with have header file collisions.

Alternatively, it would be well if xf86-video-vboxvideo driver could be user configured to compile and installed with the native version 1.18.

 Short summary:
 xf86-video-vboxvideo is not available on netbsd 8.0 base xsrc.
 compiling it with base xorg is not possible.
 compiling it with pkgsrc xorg is possible.

 Generally mixing base xorg + parts from pkgsrc doesn't work very well.

 It looks like netbsd-current xsrc has it now.
 Maybe a better request is to backport the driver to netbsd-8.

 OK, maybe I'm entirely wrong and xf86-video-vboxvideo is so new that it
 needs a new xorg even if you tried (upon further reading).
