ANSWERS Tested with xorg-server-1.7.3: ... checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes ... ... Same error. :( --- I have pkg-config-0.23 (to this day, the latest release, 16-Jan-2008) On 2008-06-24, pkg-config-0.23 was installed (per LFS Section 6.17.) Unprivileged: configure --prefix=/usr make make check root: make install End result: -rwxr-xr-x 1 290888 2008-06-24 09:45 /usr/bin/pkg-config COMMENTS and CLARIFICATIONS 1. In anticipation: xorg-server-1.7.x is compiled as unprivileged, using the command (per BLFS Xorg-7.5), ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --localstatedir=/var --with-module-dir=/usr/lib/X11/modules \ --with-xkb-output=/var/lib/xkb --enable-install-setuid 2. I remind you that I have xtrans-1.2.5 (the "good" one) in '/usr/share/pkgconfig/' xtrans-1.2.1 (the "bad" one - part of Xorg-7.4, current during Xorg-7.5 build/install) in '/usr/lib/pkgconfig/'. 3. To "force" the error I use PKG_CONFIG_PATH= /usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/qt/lib/pkgconfig in both unprivileged and root. Obviously, what matters here (for the error to happen) is the _unprivileged_ value. I never reach root :) 4. By a strange coincidence, I also tried the 1.7._3_ server first. It would hang the computer when going into X11 (from the command line) so I went back to 1.7._1_ in order to be legal with BLFS. 1.7.1 has the additional benefit that it works just fine :) Regards, -- Alex -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
