libXtst is a requisite
Hi all,
While building Harmony, with the 'all' option,
It seems that the Xtst library is required.
You will have to install libxtst-dev.
I'm having a Ubuntu 7.10 system, and have installed all the Basic
pre-requisites
Regards,
Senaka

Patches are welcome - even for doc!
Also, I think a check can be added to the scripts to look for this.
There are other checks for libpng, etc that print out a nice error
that says something about trying "apt-get" or "yum".

Hi Pavel,
I guess that the apt-get does solve it. Soft linking should be avoided,
since you might step into version issues. Basically in the C/C++ world, if
we don't find any lib, we'd rather fetch the dev packages. Same applies for
headers. In some situations you might need the utils, or extras too.
Also, I didn't notice this conversation previously. Anyhow, I believe that
it should be added as a Basic pre-requisite. That is why I sent this mail.
Regards,
Senaka
