Description Walter 2006-08-10 19:10:45 UTC
I have libX11 installed, but no x11-base/xorg-x11.

When compiling ocaml, it dies with make - no rule to build /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h

i have /usr/include/X11/Xlib.h - but not /usr/X11R6/include/X11/Xlib.h

apparently a symlink is normally created at some stage by an X package, but obviously it's not done (yet) by libX11.

i am filing the bug under ocaml so you developer types can decide what to do... the package remove its dependency on that path, or maybe you could have libX11 create the symlink too?
