hi i am trying to compile the latest wmii from the website [wmii-20071003]. in order to get libixp i first compiled and installed the tarball pointed to by the link [wmii+ixp-20070508].
i think i installed the earlier one, but when i try to compile the later one, i get errors that i haven't been able to figure out.
