configure says there is no X11/X.h file...

symlinking /usr/X11R6/include/*/ to /usr/include, like stated, makes configure see the headers...

come to think of it, it could seem like this is more of an issue with autoconf, as xine (which comes with a pre-built configure) finds X.h just fine... the version of autoconf installed is 2.59

this is an issue with some installes/builds of autoconf. they simply dont find
x headers where they normally are unless they exist in /usr/include. autoconf

do you happen to know what the issue specifically is?

on debian happily generates build finels that can find the x headers where they
normally live. that means the tarball snapshots on
enlightenment.freedesktop.org will work for you. if you try and build your own
- which you do when getting things from cvs, will fail. you need to try
different autoconf packages or a different distribution that provides and
autoconf setup that vaguely is usable, or wait until someone makes snapshot
tarballs (with make dist) or something else hacky (symlinking, playing with
CFLAGS etc.)


I'm using the symlink hack.. switching distros is not an option - all other distros I've tried to date gave me headaches :P

and I don't want to use snapshots...

The only other alternative (for me) is to find the cause of the problem and fixing it..
