Hi ,

I have been trying to install akregator 1.0.2 (  http://akregator.sf.net).
When I am running

$ ./configure

After a long list of messages I get the following message:

checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check
your installation and add the correct paths!

Then I put the following options  while rerunning ./configure

$ ./configure --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include/ --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib/

I am not sure if these are the correct options, but next time I don't get
 that error message, but get a new one :(

error: We need a working libXext to proceed. Since configure
can't find it itself, we stop here assuming that make wouldn't find
them either

This is part of the contents of /usr/X11R6/lib/

lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      14 Feb 12  2005 libXext.so.6 -> libXext.so.6.4*

Please help me solve the problem.

I doubt, therefore I maybe.
