libxcb-1.14

Introduction to libxcb

The libxcb package provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which replaces the current Xlib interface. Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make requests and receive responses with both.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-10.1 platform.

Installation of libxcb

Install libxcb by running the following commands:

CFLAGS="${CFLAGS:--O2 -g} -Wno-error=format-extra-args" ./configure $XORG_CONFIG      \
            --without-doxygen \
            --docdir='${datadir}'/doc/libxcb-1.14 &&
make

To test the results, issue: make check.

Now, as the root user:

make install

Command Explanations

--without-doxygen: Do not use doxygen to generate API documentation (default: auto). Without it, if Doxygen-1.9.1 is installed, the API documentation will be generated and installed.
