I replaced fbFinishScreenInit with wfbFinishScreenInit (couldn't find
fbScreenInit, but from what I understand that function just calls
fbSetupScreen and fbFinishScreenInit while the wfb equivalent calls
fbSetupScreen and wfbFinishScreenInit), setup a skeleton
setupWrap/finishWrap (haven't quite understood what to do with these
yet) and added libwfb.la to the make file lib list. But when I try to
compile I get errors like:

../../../fb/.libs/libwfb.a(libwfb_la-fbscreen.o)(.text+0x304): In
function `wfbSetupScreen':
: undefined reference to `wfbInitializeColormap'
../../../fb/.libs/libwfb.a(libwfb_la-fbscreen.o)(.text+0x30c): In
function `wfbSetupScreen':
: undefined reference to `wfbInstallColormap'

As far as I understand they're supposed to be in libwfb.a?
