Re: [Dri-users] More: cannot build dri-cvs anymore

[Marc F. <mfo...@co...>]

I had this very same problem last week.  The problem was I had left a
space at the end of the line defining the install directory in host.conf
(the file the instructions say we should customise).  After I removed this
space, I was able to compile, but there remained unresolved symbols in
libGL(va_start and va_end), so I wasn't able to compile gears.c.

When I wasn't able to resolve this problem, I reinstalled X from RPMs and
tried the driver tarball from the download section of the DRI home page.
This worked for me.

I see today, there is a new tarball.  I guess I'll give it a try.  :)
