None of the xorg-server programs link to libXRes.so on this build of 1.17.0.
I went back to an older system, X.Org X Server 1.12.2, and nothing in the Xorg bin or lib directories matches libXRes except for libXRes.{so,la). (June, 2012, x86)
Same for xorg-server version 1.15.0. (x86_64) Same for xorg-server version 1.16.3. (x86_64) Looking further, on this machine which is still running
1.16.3 none of the progs in /usr/bin use it. Of course, I do not have a lot of the packages which are in the book, but I think my Xorg builds are complete except for drivers not appropriate to the machine, some apps, most of hte old core fonts.
I DO have virtually all the packages in the book. And everything is built by the book.
Of the libraries,
some plugins for lxpanel and xfce4/panel, and also libwnck-1.so, are using libXRes.so. And I *do* have Xdmx in the installed progs..
In /usr/lib, only libwnck matches for me. In /usr/bin, only wnck-urgency-monitor and wnckprop matches.
So, I do not agree that --enable-dmx is needed for those progs to link to libXres, unless there is also some other required dep which I did not install. Perhaps things have changed over the years. For libwnck-1 (2.30.7) configure looks for a function in -lXRes. lxpanel pulls in libwnck and so does xfce4-panel.
I do not have libXRes in lxpanel, but it may be an issue of build order or external dependencies that I do not have.
