System: NetBSD baker 1.4.2 NetBSD 1.4.2 (JCR1) #1: Fri Mar 24 21:27:34 PST 2000 reed@baker:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/JCR1 i386
>Description:
When installing tk package (tk-8.0.5) from package source, the make
errored because the Xlib.h file was missing.
>How-To-Repeat:
Do not install the xcomp.tgz netBSD tarball and then do a make in
/usr/pkgsrc/x11/tk80/
>Fix:
I worked around this problem by installing xcomp.tgz with
cd /
tar xvzpf ~reed/xcomp.tgz -C /
and then doing a "make clean"
I believe that it should have some check to see if the X headers are
available before actual compilation.
