Could you please explain to me, why this is not done for the X server libraries. Thank you in advance.
It looks like configure didn't even use the XORG_CONFIG variable which is setup toward the beginning of Xorg. If you are using the script then it should be using: ./configure $XORG_CONFIG Refer to http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/x/xorg7.html for stable or http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/x/xorg7.html for development.
That’s what I missed. Thank you and sorry for the noise. > export XORG_CONFIG="--prefix=$XORG_PREFIX --sysconfdir=/etc \ > --localstatedir=/var --disable-static" Best regards, Paul -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
