Hi! all,
 I am facing a problem for past four days while trying to build
openmoko using mokomakefile. Openmoko build is failing while it tries
to compile libX11-X11R7. I found exactly same problem reported at
http://bugzilla.openmoko.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=244

 Build thorws an error saying package 'xau' is not not found. Quoting
from error log

| checking for arm-linux-pkg-config... no
| checking for pkg-config...
/home/orion/oss/unknown/openmoko/build/tmp/staging/i686-linux/bin/pkg-config
| checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
| checking for XPROTO... yes
| checking for X11... Package xau was not found in the pkg-config search path.
| Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xau.pc'
| to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
| No package 'xau' found
| configure: error: Package requirements (xextproto xtrans xau
xcmiscproto bigreqsproto) were not met:

|
|
| Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
| installed software in a non-standard prefix.
|
| Alternatively, you may set the environment variables X11_CFLAGS
| and X11_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
| See the pkg-config man page for more details.

One thing to note here, I found xau.pc under
./build/tmp/staging/arm-linux/share/pkgconfig/ but during compilation
package is being searched at
./build/tmp/staging/i686-linux/share/pkgconfig/ , is it normal ?
 Also, openmoko image was built thrice on te same machine without any
errors. I am using debian sarge (bit outdated) . So is something
broken or am I making some mistake.

steps executed to build the image
make update-makefile; make update; make setup; make openmoko-devel-image

regards
VK
