This error seems to be related to the Tk client (pgtksh) build. Even
disabling Tk when rebuilding from
source causes this. I had this problem yesterday on a RedHat 7.2 (brand
new) installation. This was
a "server" install (upgrade to be more specific) and by default, nothing
having to do with X is installed.
In a somewhat related issue, I can't find my "Maximum RPM book." How can I
restart the --rebuild without
re-untarring (<-- New Word?) the source and therefore triggering a complete
recompile? I want to pickup with
the make after getting a copy of Xlib.h but I want the RPM sequence to
finish (i.e., build the RPMS).
