|
|
Ive tried to update my xorg which was working. In the course of its build it is looking to link in a library using ld with the flag -lfl.
Now ive done some research and this flag is referred to as LEXLIB, which upon digging I believe refers to the flex package. However, I have this installed already, and it dosent appear using equery that the flex package installs any libraries that xorg could use. So where oh where do I locate the library referred to by -lfl so I can get my X back? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! |

looking at the ebuild - apparently if the build flag is set, the library dosent get made. Not sure why my build flag USE var was set, but removing it fixes this problem. |
