xorg-server-xephyr - cannot install from aur.

Hello respectable archlinux community!

Could anyone please help a humble noob?

I want to practice in configuration of fvwm2 and awesome window managers which i find unbelieveably efficient and beautyful when properly tuned up (and scary out of the box), but while editing rc.lua or fvwm2rc i would like to sit in old good openbox which i am used to. Hence i need xnest or xephyr.

Xnest does not seem to be in aur, and xephyr cannot be built on my machine. I try to install it with
yaourt -S xorg-server-xephyr
It required gcc which i installed, but now it stops building with such a message:

In file included from ../Xext/panoramiX.h:43,
                 from dispatch.c:134:

make: *** [all] Error 2
==> ERROR: Build Failed.
    Aborting...
Error: Makepkg was unable to build xorg-server-xephyr package.

How do i fix it?

Re: xorg-server-xephyr - cannot install from aur.

It's fine here, don't worry .

I found  this when I googled the last error before

make[1]: *** [dispatch.lo] Error 1

.

Try if disabling Xinerama works.
