I've got difficulties with the first sentence of this paragraph, but I agree with the second. Specifically, util-macros needs xproto. We used to build the utilities after the protocols, I didn't realise that they had been moved. > The other thing is that util-macro installs the xorg-macros.pc in > $XORG_PREFIX/shared/pkgconfig.

For me, trying to build xorg in a different prefix than /usr was not worth the pain :) ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
