wmii builds a copy of libixp and statically links to it, even the tarball is called "wmii+ixp-version.tbz".

i'm not sure if it's modified or what, but it should be looked into.

The version bundled in wmii is newer than 0.5. However, wmii-3.9 works with libixp-0.5 quite fine. I have requested upstream to make a new release.

as a sidenote: wmii-3.9.2 is out, feel like taking care of it? :-p

Created attachment 267497 [details, diff]
Use system copy of libixp.

Fails to build w/ 0.5_p20110208 because:

/usr/include/ixp.h:

#if IXP_NEEDAPI < 127

[ .. ]

# define serve_9pcon ixp_serve9pconn      <- This is required.

#endif

So it seems to need at least some -DIXP_NEEDAPI flag to get around that "# if" in ixp.h header file

Xarthisius, mind taking a look? For some reason I'm not having much luck here.
