[Solved]I can´t compile anything!!!!!!!!!!

Hello,

I´m using Arch Linux since nearly 2 years. And sometimes there are problems, but they are solved fast and I really love Arch. Because it´s simple, fast and flexible.

But since some weeks i´ve got a big problem.

All the time i wanna compile a program i got the same errors. It hink it has something to do with xorg7.

So many buildings breaks at configure.
Here are some errors:

GMRUN:

                        gobject-2.0 >= 2.0.4

X11 libraries or header files could not be found.  Please make
sure the X11 development package is installed on your system.
If it is definitely installed, try setting the include and library
paths with the --x-include and --x-libraries options of configure.
Fvwm can not be compiled without the X11 development environment.

Aborting.

OPENBOX-DEVEL

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively you may set the XFT_CFLAGS and XFT_LIBS environment variables
to avoid the need to call pkg-config.  See the pkg-config man page for
more details.

Problem solved.

I just had to reinstall libxrender, the old package was from another server. Seems that it was broken.

Yeah, Arch Linux has really helpful community. They're giving the opportunity to fix user's problems themselves. Which community does the same these days? We must appreciate it

He did post the problem and solution within 50 minutes of each other, and at a time few people browse the forums.. although I guess sarcastic comments do add a lot to the quality of the discussion and general tone of the forums.

Did you see what I did there?

And on topic, Legout, I didn't quite understand what happened; you believe there was an erroneous build of libxrender in an official repository? If so, I guess that should be reported as a bug.
