I tried both solutions just for fun ;)
Thanks for that.
Dropping the sed worked, and espgs compiled without complaining.
I wonder if the sed is actually needed if you want X support. From my
reading of the Makefile, it seems that X would be substituted properly
by configure.
However, leaving the sed alone and use make DISPLAY_DEV="" bombed at the
same place as before.
Hmm. That means there's something else going on I wasn't seeing since
it was substituting x11.dev at some point. What a mess.
I also added (on all my tests) --without-x to the ./configure command
just to make sure.
Thanks for the feedback. Next time I rebuild, I'll check if that sed
is really needed or not.
