Problem Building Mesa-6.5 with glproto>1.4.6

I'm starting with a multilib CLFS from the rc4 book on an AMD64 platform. I was trying to build a strictly 64-bit Mesa-6.5 with linux-dri (also tried linux-dri-x86 and linux-dri-x86-64). Started using glproto 1.4.7 and got this error.

Code:

glxcmds.c: In function `glXBindTexImageEXT':
glxcmds.c:2670: error: `X_GLXvop_BindTexImageEXT' undeclared (first use
in this function)
glxcmds.c:2670: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
glxcmds.c:2670: error: for each function it appears in.)
glxcmds.c: In function `glXReleaseTexImageEXT':
glxcmds.c:2711: error: `X_GLXvop_ReleaseTexImageEXT' undeclared (first
use in this function)

The great Google told me to use the latest version of glproto, so I tried 1.4.8. Same results. I could build Mesa without dri though. Finally, I tried glproto-1.4.6 since that was the "latest" version available at the time of the posts I found recommending upgrading glproto. Lo and behold, it worked.

I had also tried using Mesa-6.5.1 with glproto1.4.7 and 1.4.8 with the same results. Here's something interesting as well

Code:

grep X_GLXvop_BindTexImageEXT glproto-1.4.* -Hrn
glproto-1.4.6/glxproto.h:2390:#define X_GLXvop_BindTexImageEXT 5152
glproto-1.4.7/glxproto.h:2390:#define X_GLXvop_BindTexImageEXT 5152

Anyway, X seems to be working with a beautiful turquoise and white tabbed wm.

Just wondering if anyone else had seen this and could tell me what I'm doing wrong.

As I figured, it was something I had done. When I installed glproto-1.4.7 and 1.4.8, the headers installed in /usr/local/include/GL. When I installed glproto-1.4.6, the headers went to /usr/X11R7/include/GL. Mesa was looking in /usr/X11R7/include/GL for glproto and finding nothing until I installed 1.4.6. Just installed 1.4.7, rebuilt Mesa-6.5 successfully, and then rebuilt the xserver sucessfully.

I love installing from source!!!

You should be specifying ./configure --prefix=/blah on EVERY single package. Preferably /usr. You won't have any such problems if you start doing that.

Actually I do via an environment variable XORG_CONFIG. I figured it out when I caught myself typing ./configure #XORG_CONFIG rather than ./configure $XORG_CONFIG. Sometimes at 1am after several glasses of Scotch, I make mistakes.
