I think it failed to do this because it didn’t detect x11-dev on your system. Really, it shouldn’t have attempted to build glxdisplay in this case either, and I’ve just committed a fix for that mistake.
Any particular reason you’re using ppremake instead of makepanda?
Thanks David for your quick response, that cured that particular issue. Sorry for my slow response, my day job gets busy. :-/
I had tried to build 1.7.2 with makepanda and failed, and figured ppremake was a fair alternative, and while I was thinking about making things difficult, why not throw CVS into the mix?
My ppremake build’s now breaking in ./direct…

Unfortunately I didn’t have any luck with makepanda and CVS…

(I’ve posted the whole build output at pastebin.com/KdnkRKwa just in case you need it.)
As to your ppremake build, perhaps you didn’t “make install” in panda yet? You have to make install in each of dtool, panda, direct, pandatool before you move on to the next one.
Good question, wish I could answer it. makepanda did the trick so I abandoned the ppremake build. Thanks for all your help! Looking forward to getting going on panda.
