Hi
I was trying to build XWayland as per the recipe from
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/xserver.html and ran into an issue
because I have the Wayland libs installed in a non-standard location
(from http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html)
Basically, xserver/hw/xwayland/Makefile.am specifies
"Xwayland_DEPENDENCIES = $(XWAYLAND_LIBS)" which will break because
XWAYLAND_LIBS also contains the statements "-L/path/to/the/lib" and that
breaks the build with:
make[2]: *** No rule to make target '-L/path/to/the/lib', needed by
'Xwayland'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/ofourdan/src/wayland/xserver/hw/xwayland'
I am not sure why "Xwayland_DEPENDENCIES = $(XWAYLAND_LIBS)" was added
in the first place, it comes from a huge commit (6e539d88), but I
suspect it's not needed and it might be better not have it (at least it
builds successfully without), thus the patch attached.
HTH,
Cheers,
Olivier

Subject: [PATCH] Remove explicit dependency on $(WAYLAND_LIBS)
Xwayland Makefile explicitely set its dependencies on
WAYLAND_LIBS. If the ibrairies are installed in a non-standard
path, WAYLAND_LIBS contains '-L/path/to/the/lib' which will fail
at build time with:
"No rule to make target '-L/path/to/the/lib', needed by 'Xwayland'.
Stop"
Remove that explicit dependency to avoid the problem (LDADD ought
to be enough to get the right libraries linked).
