As I said, I'm not on that list (but it would make me happy, if i could get access there ;) ). I still don't know which la files should be deleted.
Tried /usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.la but no luck.

I have just found this interesting post http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg/2009-March/044557.html

Trying now the first command on my production system, will see if it do something good.

OK, Problem is solved for me.

Code: [Select]
grep libxcb-xlib.la /usr/lib/*.la | cut -d":" -f1This command worked for almost all files. I had only one to correct manually.

Hello.

How exactly you correct them manually ?
I'm running into this same problem, cyrylas

Code: [Select]
# grep libxcb-xlib.la /usr/lib/*.la | cut -d":" -f1
/usr/lib/libnotify.la
/usr/lib/libstartup-notification-1.la

Please teach me if you don't mind.
Thanks

Those are simple plain text files, so you can edit them in any text editor.

Just remove all occurrences of /usr/lib/libxcb-xlib.la.

Ahhh, silly me. Didn't think that was a plain text  ;D
now it's clean.
thank you very much cyrylas.
