I don't think this email got through for some reason or another. Here it is in its entirety.
I have been unable to successfully copmile the xorg 7 libraries. I have been following the development BLFS tutorial on installing xorg, step by step. xproto-7.2 seems to have installed fine, so i don't know why xorg-lib isnt compiling. the problem seems to lie with xproto. grep xext xorg-lib-compile.log generates teh following output: checking for XXF86MISC... configure: error: Package requirements (xproto x11 xextproto xext xf86miscproto) were not met: No package 'xext' found checking for XXF86VM... configure: error: Package requirements (xproto x11 xextproto xext xf86vidmodeproto) were not met: No package 'xext' found Actually, the output is much longer than that, but it's basically the same thing for every package. I don't get it: xproto installed fine. When I check /usr/lib/pkgconfig, xextproto.pc and xproto.pc are there. I installed xorg to the standard prefix. The pkgconfig path env variable is set up correctly (/etc/profile.d/extrapaths.sh has pathappend /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig PKG_CONFIG_PATH in it). What could be the problem?
