As a native English speaker and someone who prides themselves on decent spelling, it's sad that I often mess this up.

It depends on libxcb and adds a couple more xcb modules. In particular, cairo needs libxcb-renderutil. I'm not sure how this differs from libxcb-render, which comes with libxcb, but that's what cairo wants. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
