IMHO, any binary application that is looking for files in /usr/include/* during runtime is horribly broken. The include directory should never be used at runtime, only compile time. The files included in the XFree86 packaging include every file that the XFree86 "make install install.man" puts into the installroot prior to final rpm packaging. Any files not included are either not included for a reason, or are a bug in XFree86 build process. Personally I'd consider this an XFree86 xbiff bug however, and xbiff isn't a mission critical application that we support. My recommendation is for you to file a bug report to XFree86.org directly (xpert) to see if there is a problem with the xbiff build process that should be addressed upstream by them so any fix is available to everyone. We'd then pick it up in the next release. I'll leave this open for now to wait and see how they respond to your query. If they drop a fix in CVS, I'll pick it up from there. Thanks. This is extremely low priority as we have many much more high priority bugs at hand. It is something that XFree86.org should fix by making the build/install process more sensible. Please report this upstream, so it gets fixed in a future XFree86 release. Closing WONTFIX |
