What is UpdateXorgRecipe? And how do I update Xorg-Server?

I realized that digest mode is not what I want for a mailing list, since I
cannot reply to emails individually.

Anyway, my attempt to build i3 has been sidetracked because I ran

InstallPackage Xorg-Server

which broke X. When I ran `startx` on the next boot, the server shutdown
because the VESA driver's ABI was at a different version than Xorg's. So I
tried update that driver but I ran into some other issues. I could describe
those issues, but I'm feeling like that isn't the root issue.

I would expect this is an issue other people have run into, since nearly
everyone uses Xorg, and people generally keep their systems up to the
latest version.

While looking for a solution, I noticed the UpdateXorgRecipe script. I ran
it, and it made a bunch of local recipes, but as far as I can tell, it
didn't actually compile anything. Thus, I tried to run `Compile
Xorg-Server` to compile the newly generated recipes. I got the dependency
issues:

Requested 'xproto >= 7.0.31' but version of Xproto is 7.0.29
Requested 'randrproto >= 1.6.0' but version of RandrProto is 1.5.0
Requested 'presentproto >= 1.1' but version of PresentProto is 1.0

Has anybody encountered this error before? Also, is there any documentation
for what UpdateXorgRecipe does?

Last question, how do I search these mailing list archives? The link on the
website points to
http://search.gmane.org/search.php?group=gmane.linux.distributions.gobo.general,
which does not work.

Thanks,
Philip
