Thanks for the report. However, (I cannot look at sources right
now, so I can't be sure) I think you need to pass a parameter to
the configure command if ESoundD is not installed. One way or the
other, when I get back to my development computer, I'll do what
it takes to fix it. Unless another Editor beats me to it. :-)

I'm thinking that we (well, most of the developers) are just being
hard-headed by not including a /usr/X11R6 symlink to the installed
location of Xorg. It makes things so much easier down the road after
X is installed. I realize that you can do without it, by using
workarounds, CFLAGS, whatever, but that just seems like a hassle to
avoid creating a symlink. To each his own, I suppose.
