Have you installed libxdg? edit: obviously you have.

Have a look at this tutorial.

I don't have a lot of exp compiling but you saw this line?

-- checking for modules 'glib-2.0;cairo;x11;pango>=1.19.3;pangocairo>=1.19.3;xcb-randr;xcb-xtest;xcb-xinerama;xcb-shape;xcb-util>=0.3.8;xcb-keysyms>=0.3.4;xcb-icccm>=0.3.8;xcb-image>=0.3.0;cairo-xcb;libstartup-notification-1.0>=0.10;xproto>=7.0.15;imlib2;libxdg-basedir>=1.0.0'

@sycamorex actually i'm following ur tutorial and everything was ok ,, and when i reached step "4" in ur tutorial and i run "make" i got that error
-- package 'xcb-util>=0.3.8' not found
-- package 'xcb-icccm>=0.3.8' not found

then i upgraded "xcb-util-0.3.6" to "xcb-util-0.3.8",, then run make again ,, but still have -- package 'xcb-icccm>=0.3.8' not found

and i think i've installed libxdg correctly

Weird. What's the output of:

Code:

ls /var/log/packages | grep xcb*

I was about to build it myself on a clean Slackware system to check it but slackware.com is down and don't have any mirrors bookmarked. Once it's up again, I'll try to build it in a virtual machine.

i did not used to compile programs , may be i'm missing something.

Ok, you've got 2 installs of xcb-util. Can you make sure that you've only got one installed (ideally the one that came with Slackware) Why did you have to upgrade it?

wildwizard · 04-14-2012, 06:50 PM

Looks like it has been split out you need to get "xcb-util-wm"

http://xcb.freedesktop.org/dist/xcb-...-0.3.8.tar.bz2

idnotcrae · 04-14-2012, 07:04 PM

i upgraded it actually because when i tried to run "make" with the original packages came with slack, i got the following error

i checked /var/log/packages , found "xcb-util-0.3.6-i486-1" installed ,, and i thought that awesome needs the higher version.

i removed "xcb-util-0.3.8-i486" and run make again but got the same error missing the two
-- package 'xcb-util>=0.3.8' not found
-- package 'xcb-icccm>=0.3.8' not found

idontcare: Your ls listing shows you have both versions installed.

After you remove the old version of xcb-util you will need to reinstall the new version and you will need the new package I posted previously as it contains the icccm-xcb lib.

do i get that right ?
1- uninstall xcb-util-0.3.6-i486-1 <- came with slack
2- install xcb-util-0.3.8-i486 <- the new version
3- build and install xcb-util-wm-0.3.8.tar.bz2

wildwizard · 04-14-2012, 07:28 PM

Your order is correct

You may also need to upgrade other parts of xcb, if you get any configure errors get the upgraded parts from here :-

idnotcrae · 04-14-2012, 07:51 PM

@Wildwizard > it works fine now , my problem was the missing "xcb-util-wm" and the newer version "xcb-util-0.8.3" package exactly like u said.
thank you
