Did the following patch fix the problem? If so, just wait for the next release of windowmaker. Quoting partially: ------------ wm/ChangeLog (1.268 -> 1.269) ------------ @@ -5,6 +5,8 @@ - allow disable of switch panel when SwitchPanelImages=None - added X Input Methods support in WINGs - fixed issues with compiling on Solaris with openwin +- reduced minimum required version number for the Xft library to 2.1.0 +- fixed some compilation issues with gcc-2.9x --------------- wm/configure.ac (1.55 -> 1.56) --------------- @@ -535,7 +535,7 @@ exit 1 fi -minXFT="2.1.2" +minXFT="2.1.0" Well, reducing dependency from "2.1.2" to "2.1.0" (hopefully considered equal to "2.1") will satisfy configure's needs. XFree86 4.3.0 has libXft 2.1, so if the requirement is reduced to 2.1, I see no reason why it shouldn't fix this problem. I waited 0.90 for so long, I can sure wait some more... :) seems I maintain windowmaker now ;-) reassigning 0.90.0 has was quickly replaced by 0.91.0, but regardless, both require x11-base/xorg-x11 (as this makes the most sense currently) which provides this required library. xfree86-4.3 series is not supported I will attempt to see if the patch in this bug post actually works, soon. Not the way I would've liked to fix the bug, but since xfree86 is no longer officially supported, I'm closing this bug. (Xorg was required from the beginning anyway...) |
