Compiling OpenBox fails on TC 6.0 x86

[Misalf]

I'm trying to build OpenBox on TC 6.0 32bit.

Code: [Select]

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/etc --disable-nls

'make' fails and gives the following error message:

Code: [Select]

  ...
  CC     obrender/obrender_libobrender_la-render.lo
  CC     obrender/obrender_libobrender_la-theme.lo
  CCLD   obrender/libobrender.la
/usr/local/bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/libXext.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libXext.la' is not a valid libtool archive
Makefile:1256: recipe for target 'obrender/libobrender.la' failed
make[1]: *** [obrender/libobrender.la] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/openbox-3.5.2'
Makefile:3771: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

libXext.la  is not in  /usr/lib/  but in   /usr/local/lib/ .
I tried setting several variables such as  LDFLAGS , LIBS , USRLIBS , PKG_CONFIG_PATH  to include  /usr/local/lib/ , hoping I could do it correctly just by chance. (;
But no.

Any hints?
Thanks.

Copy or symlink from /usr/local/lib to /usr/lib

[Misalf]

That did the trick. Thanks, bmarkus!

But I'm wondering, is that the usual or proper way to go?
On TinyCore all the mess is gone after rebooting while on other distros I'd had to clean up manually.

BTW, the reason I wanted to rebuild Openbox is that some apps (firefox) don't have icons in window titlebar and taskbar and  /tmp/wm_errors  gets kinda dirty and keeps growing:

[Juanito]

The problem looks to have been in imlib2-dev, adjusted extension posted.

[Misalf]

Updated imlib2-dev and rebuilt openbox but nothing changed apparently.

[Juanito]

odd - I tested the rebuilt extension by compiling openbox and everything worked fine...

[Misalf]

Aha! I had to load  shared-mime-info.tcz  to get icons (for gtk apps?) in tint2 and Openbox.
This doesn't stop Openbox from spamming GLib-CRITICAL complains in wm_errors, though.

Icons for FLTK apps or Aterm never showed up in the *boxes so I guess this is "normal", unfortunately(?).
