On a new install, emerging xorg-server 1.3 failed at the configure stage with the following error; checking whether to build Xdmx DDX... checking for DMXMODULES... no yes configure: error: Xdmx build explicitly requested, but required modules not found. !!! Please attach the following file when filing a report to bugs.gentoo.org: !!! /var/tmp/portage/x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0/work/xorg-server-1.3.0.0/config.log Looking through the config.log, I found the following; configure:28912: checking whether to build Xdmx DDX configure:28916: checking for DMXMODULES configure:28924: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "xmuu xext x11 xrender xfixes xfont xi dmxproto xau $XDMCP_MODULES" Package xfixes was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xfixes.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'xfixes' found configure:28927: $? = 1 configure:28942: $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "xmuu xext x11 xrender xfixes xfont xi dmxproto xau $XDMCP_MODULES" Package xfixes was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xfixes.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'xfixes' found configure:28945: $? = 1 No package 'xfixes' found configure:28973: result: no configure:28988: result: yes configure:29004: error: Xdmx build explicitly requested, but required modules not found. `emerge -1 libXfixes && emerge xorg-server` solved the problem. Suggest adding the following to RDEPEND in xorg-server-1.3.0.0.ebuild; dmx? ( x11-libs/libdmx x11-libs/libXfixes ) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: New install, USE=dmx emerge xorg-server
Fixed, thanks.
