Hi all,

I'm using Arch linux 32 bit to develop a sample application on Wayland.  My question is, if I've installed the Wayland and Weston packages using pacman, shouldn't the files (headers and libraries) used to run the client examples in the Weston source exist after installation of these pacakges?  If not, are there any example clients that DO use the files installed by the Wayland and Weston packages?

My point is, I expect to be able to develop code using system headers and libraries installed by the packages, and I'd rather not download and build the source every time an update becomes available.  I'd rather use 'pacman -Syu' to do the updates.

An example would be the weston/clients/window.h or weston/shared/os-compatibility.h.  I'd at least expect there to be a version of window.h in the system headers coming from the Arch package.  Is this an issue with the Arch linux package creators?

I'm new to Wayland, and all I'm trying to do is show a window on the Wayland display.  Most of the examples I've looked at don't seem to refer much to the system headers and libraries, apart from the most common ones installed by the packages.

If anyone can give me some guidance, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
Mike
