I cannot compile Mesa 3d to save my soul

[Dapper Dan]

I'm trying to get gparted going. Mesa3d is a dependency. Here's what happens:

mesa3d

The only thing I found on this suggested to do "make linux-x86" rather than "make linux-dri-x86." I still get the same error(s).

Any insight or suggestions appreciated.

You probably need to install the development (devel) package for Xdamage (or libXdamage).

[Dapper Dan]

Good call daark.child. I checked and xorg-libxdamage is installed, but I'll be damned if I can find it! I've done updatedb twice and still don't see it listed anywhere other than in the ports. I even un-installed it and re-installed and it still doesn't show anywhere...

EDIT: Just found it. I wasn't seeing it because it is installed as libXdamage and not libxdamage like the package is listed. Maybe it's looking for it where it's not.

[Dapper Dan]

I don't think it is libXdamage. I've tried to build this over 10 times since last night, using every make configuration I could find. Nothing works. It just won't compile and I don't know why.:drown:

This error message makes me believe it is

../../lib/libGL.so: undefined reference to `XDamageAdd'

Search for that error on google and you will find that most people solved the problem by installing libXdamage and its development package.

LibXdamage was already installed. I didn't look for its development package, but finally broke down and installed Mesa 3d from a Slackware package. Here is the result...

I appreciate your help.

EDIT: Interestingly enough, mesa3d lists xorg-libxdamage as a dependency but not its development packages.

# prt-get depends mesa3d

I might go find the development packages later and try again just to see if that's what it was begging for, but for now I'm too beat with gparted to try... lol...
