The short answer is the you need to add -lX11 to the line in src/frontends/qt4/Makefile.am liblyxqt4_la_LIBADD = $(QT4_LIB) goes to liblyxqt4_la_LIBADD = $(QT4_LIB) -lX11 This is not the right (although it is the right idea) but for the moment I am busy and I can not add further to this work. Tomorrow or so I will pick this again to build 1.6.6.1 o F-13 (for updates- testing). The right fix would be to make this as liblyxqt4_la_LIBADD = $(QT4_LIB) $(X_LIBS) but then X_LIBS is not set at this point... > --Alok -- José Abílio
