I'm trying to rebuild texlive, and the build on x86 is failing as follows:

libtool: error: cannot find the library '/usr/lib/libxcb.la' or unhandled
argument '/usr/lib/libxcb.la'
(/usr/lib/libxcb.la was removed from the x86 distro in the recent update of
libxcb-devel.)
I think I found the problem, but I don't have access to my build machine
right now to test it: Several /usr/lib/*.la files include the
non-existent /usr/lib/libxcb.la in their dependency_libs. In
particular, this is true of /usr/lib/libXext.la. So I'm guessing that
the presence of -lXext in the libtool command line is causing libtool to
look for /usr/lib/libxcb.la.
Can someone confirm this guess? If I'm right, then it seems that
/usr/lib/libxcb.la should be restored until all packages that depend on
it can be rebuilt.
