If you install that libtool in /usr/local/bin, then run these
commands in your xorg-xserver tree:
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/aclocal
What is this empty directory good for?
If you make this directory and set ACLOCAL as below before you make
all of the preqrequisites, some of them will place files there that
you will need if you ever want to re-run autoconf on any of the
packages. (Specifically, in mine I have these files:
libtool.m4 ltdl.m4 pkg.m4 xaw.m4 xorg-macros.m4 xorgversion.m4
xtrans.m4
My 'X files' are in /usr/X11R7/share/aclocal. I'll add this component
to ACLOCAL for the next try.
I think I found the cause of your problems compiling Xprt:
When I use xorg-server-X11R7.1-1.1.0 without any patches, and try
to compile Xprt, I get this:
[...]
The problem here is in the ordering of the dynamic libraries. If
you move them ('-lX11 -lXfont -lm -lfontenc -lfreetype -lz -lXdmcp -
lXau') to the end of that line, after libXext.la, it will compile
correctly.
How do you find this? Which tools might tell to do so? Or is it just
experience?
(I am trying to compile xorg-server-1.1.99.3 of X11R7.1, that's what
'git status' tells me. And this seems to be a bit 'experimental:'
minor changes in environment variables change success of making the
lib targets!)
