Re: Compilation Frustration

["Adam Williams" <awilliam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Strangely enough,  I solved this problem with the following procedure:

rpm -e XFree86-devel
rpm --install XFree86-devel-3.3-1.i386.rpm

and now it works.  I did a -verify of the package when I first had the problem
but it reported everything was as it was installed.  Go Figure.
