Building VirtualBox OSE 2.0.6 on Fedora 9

Post by urbanus »

After installing all the dependencies identified by the configure script and running `kmk all` I get the following error:

Code: Select all

This is caused by the absence of the libXmu development package. The solution is to install it:

Code: Select all

$ yum install libXmu-devel
The configure script probably needs a section to check for libXmu.
