Update to README - solution to: possibly undefined macro: XORG_MANPAGE_SECTIONS
Hi! I was trying to build a newer version of radeonhd (I have it already working) and the following error appeared: configure.ac:288: error: possibly undefined macro: XORG_MANPAGE_SECTIONS After some googling I found out I needed some xorg-dev package installed on my system. Unfortunatelly it has not been trivial to found _wich_ one, as I allready had them installed. i xorg-dev - the X.Org X Window System development libr i A xserver-xorg-dev - Xorg X server - development files Some radeonhd IRC logs answering some similar question redirected to RTFM. I did and found: Solution: --------- Your system lacks one or more of these files in /usr/share/aclocal: xorg-macros.m4 xorg-server.m4 xorgversion.m4 Make sure you have all required X.org development packages installed. These may be called xorg-dev, xorg-x11-server-sdk and xorg-x11-util-macros, or something similar. --------------- I started searching until I found xorg-build-macros that is an alias to xutils-dev. It would be helpfull if you could add this dependency to the README, so it would be easier to Debian people to build radeonhd. Thanks in advance and thanks a lot for your great work.

This is a purely Deian issue. The SDK packages are named differently on
every distribution, and on Debian they split into more packages than on
other distributions. The (slightly misleading) information of the
configure process comes AFAIK from autoconf macros from some X developer
package, nothing we can change in our driver.
I don't think this should go into the ReadMe, but rather into a subpage
on the wiki (distribution-related information). It's a wiki, feel free
to add it.
