Re: [Ltib] qtopia package build failure while building ltib from CVS (Savannah)

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Daniel,

What's odd is that in some cases it must run without doing that copy as 
the team that added qtopia would have tested this.  Maybe they had some 
other fonts selected?

I'm curious as to why Xlib-dev is needed, I didn't know that was needed 
for qtopia2, however the whole build mechanism for qtopia seems rather 
odd to me (at least).

Thanks for your help with this.

Regards, Stuart
