wine: x development files not found...


hi,

i just tried installing wine-20050211 from the source files (not rpm), and i get this message when i run the wineinstall script:

*** warning: X development files not found. Wine will be built without X support, which currently does not work, and would probably not be what you want anyway. You will need to install devel packages of Xlib/Xfree86 at the very least.
Configure finished. Do 'make depend && make' to compile Wine. Install the X development headers and try again.
************************************************************

I use mandrake 10.1 official, and as per the distro notes, i have Xorg 6.7.0.

I read somewhere that i will need to install the libxorg-x11-devel package. Is this correct? And do I have to install the same version as i currently have (6.7.0), or can i install the latest version found on the Xorg site (www.x.org)?

I can install Wine via the rpm, but i want to learn how to compile from source, so all this experimentation

btw, in my /usr/X11R6 directory, i do have the bin, include, lib and man directories...does that mean i have the x11 sources?

I'm not sure what files i need to install in this scenario, and i would appreciate some help here :-)

when i use the rpmdrake tool and search for libxorg', i get no entries, so it looks like the package is not on my installation cds either (i have only cd 1,2 and 3, downloaded from the web)

regards,
guy24x

You need to install the libxorg-x11-devel rpm from your CD's. You can't install just any version.
Try 'urpmi libxorg-x11-devel' in a terminal.

If you want to see what that command instaled you can run 'rpm -ql libxorg-x11-devel' afterwards.
