As Tilghman indicated X is definitely not required to build Asterisk, we run RH9 without any X related packages installed and it compiles and runs perfectly.

Is X required to build asterisk? When we tried to do so on machines that didn't have any X libraries installed, we would get errors at link time building pbx.c If we removed the lines that called for those libraries, asterisk would build, but then other weirdnesses would ensue and we finally just started installing the X libraries even though we will never run X on those boxes (low-end servers talking to one or two channels). Could anyone comment on "the right way to do it?" It's got to be either me or the code :-) Thx. b. _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ********* DISCLAIMER ********* This message and any attachment are confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and may include proprietary information.
