Hi

trying to compile a bunch of things, x11 is needed. Within that,
compiling libxext6 fails with the following messages
---
checking whether malloc(0) returns NULL... yes
checking for XEXT... no
configure: error: Package requirements (xproto >= 7.0.13 x11 >= 1.6
xextproto >= 7.1.99) were not met:

Requested 'x11 >= 1.6' but version of X11 is 1.5.0

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Obviously there is a dependance that I'm missing.. what is actually
responsible for defining the version of X>

The package for X11 itself is autobuilder/libraries/x11/libx11-6 and
the version is set in setvars:

AB_URL=http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libx/libx11/libx11_1.5.0.orig.tar.gz

Looks like there are some debian patches applied in
autobuilder/libraries/x11/libx11-6/preprocess as well that involves a
version number.

So here it's set at 1.5.0. You could try changing AB_URL to a newer
version and see how it goes.

If configure fails, you should find a config.log file in the build
directory which give more details as to why it failed including the
program it was trying to compile, the command line it used and the
actual compiler error.
