Hi,
I have the same problem as this user:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.games.board.chess.scid.user/5239
I've installed as many X11*-dev packages and xorg packages as I can
think of. My problem is identical to the user referenced at the link
above. The ./configure fails with the same message and produces a
generic Makefile.
Has someone figured out what has been removed from Ubuntu 11.04 that
makes this normally automatic compile break?
I did ;-)
The issue is not that the compile breaks, but that scid's ./configure
script does not anticipate the (new!) location of the libraries.
I give you a rod, you catch the fish:
- Open Synaptic package manager and ensure you have the package
libx11-dev installed
- Put the cursor on this package and open the "Installed Files" tab at
the bottom of the window
- Locate the path of the libX11.so and LibX11.a files. On my (64-bit)
system they are in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
Aha...
- Open ./configure in a text editor and add this path string (without
the file names) to the x11Path list in lines 210-217 of the ./configure
script
- Save the script and rerun ./configure
Happy building!
Cheers,
Joost.
Thanks,
Roy
