I downloaded and installed the pixman you referenced above as follows:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install
which results in the following files:
/usr/lib/libpixman-1.so.0.9.4
/usr/lib/libpixman-1.a
/usr/lib/libpixman-1.la
/usr/lib/libpixman-1.so
/usr/lib/libpixman-1.so.0
When installing xserver from git, about 5 minutes into the make, I get
the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpixman
Which of the above pixman libraries are required for xserver?
Thanks,
Chris
