There are plenty of "xlibs-dev (<< 4.3)" alternatives in the build-deps. I suppose you're concerned about the libxext-dev one. xlibs-dev 4.3 is a transitional package. It depends on libxext-dev, among others, so if you have xlibs-dev installed, you also have libxext-dev installed anyway, so the dependency would be satisfied. > For most of the build-dependencies, there are alternative packages > which Sarge could satisfy, however without xlibs-dev, I have to use > libxext-dev, which is NOT available in Sarge (this package is only > available in etch onwards) and backporting to Sarge therefore becomes > impossible. Sarge is the stable release, right? Then http://packages.debian.org/stable/oldlibs/xlibs-dev and http://packages.debian.org/stable/libdevel/libxext-dev shows that libxext-dev does exist in Sarge. The package list on the official FTP site lists it too. I don't know what you're running, but if libxext-dev isn't in it, you're certainly not running Sarge. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
