Can you help me?
I'm installing gnome-desktop 2.30.2 and get two error message:
#Number 1
/.libs/libgnome-desktop-2.so undefined reference to 'XRRGetOutputPrimary'
#Number 2
/.libs/libgnome-desktop-2.so undefined reference to 'XRRGetScreenResourcesCurrent'

I'm a Fedora user. I don't know why installation of gnome-menus 2.30.2 and gnome-panel 2.30.2 get two error the same.

Thanks in advance!

Are you using BLFS to build gnome? And if so, which book? I'm asking because you mention Gnome version 2.30, which is old (current BLFS builds 3.6).

You also mention Fedora; Did you post in the wrong sub-forum? If so ask a moderator to move your thread (use the report button).

I'm using BLFS(Version gnome2 2012-01-20)

That is an older BLFS version which deals with Gnome 2, why not use the current one (which uses Gnome 3)?

About your question: You need to provide more detailed information about what you have done:

- Which LFS version is this build upon?
- Are all the dependencies correctly installed?
- Does this error show during the make step?
- Post more error details, not just the error itself (as explained here: LFS - Help)

#And I attached a detail of bug. If you install gnome-desktop from 2.26.3 to 2.30.2, you will be able to see this kind of bug.
