 apt-get install x-window-system
 
 brings in the whole 9 yards.

You probably meant x-window-system-dev. The x-window-system package does
not depend on any developement packages.

Problems finding X when configuring

2004-08-07 Thread Shawn McCuan
Whenever i try to configure anything (by running ./configure), It always 
stops at /Checking for X/ or /Checking for libXext/ or /Checking 
for X Includes/ . Im fairly sure that my computer has xfree86 
installed, (ive ran */apt-get install xserver-xfree86/*) and i believe 
the directory to xserver stuff is at /*/usr/X11R6/lib/X11*/. So, ive 
even tried running configuring scripts with the command  */./configure 
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/

/*But, i am fairly new to linux, so, maybe I am missing something 
obvious to everyone else. Can someone help me figure out why I cant get 
anything to configure past this point?

Thanks!
