hi

I have been trying to install pango so i can install gtk+, but i have a problem. Pango complains during the build that libX11.so.6 doesn't exist, but it does, and i ran a find to locate it, and the result was /usr/X11R6/libX11.so.6, which i thought was standard. do i have to give a argument to configure? i am perplexed please give me some help.

thanks,
behmjose

Did you try adding the /etc/X11R6/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf file, then running ldconfig to update your shared links lib's in order for it to look in that location when installling?
