Ok, thanks! I guess I have a bigger problem then, the error I am 
recieving is:

| DEBUG: Executing shell function autotools_preconfigure
| DEBUG: Shell function autotools_preconfigure finished
| DEBUG: Executing shell function do_configure
| ERROR: Xfixes not found

Now, I have libxcb in DEPENDS and I have the following configure options:

EXTRA_OECONF = " \
         --cross-prefix=${TARGET_PREFIX} \
         --enable-cross-compile \
         --sysroot="${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}" \
         --sysinclude="${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}${includedir}" \
         --target-os="linux" \
         --extra-cflags="${TARGET_CFLAGS} 
${HOST_CC_ARCH}${TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS}" \
         --extra-ldflags="${TARGET_LDFLAGS}" \
         --arch=${TARGET_ARCH} \
         --enable-hardcoded-tables \
         --enable-shared \
         --enable-pthreads \
         --enable-gpl \
         --enable-avfilter \
         --prefix=${prefix} \
         --enable-x11grab \
         --enable-libtheora  \
         --enable-libvorbis \
         ${EXTRA_FFCONF} \
"

Is there anything glaringly wrong?I am worried about these two:

         --sysroot="${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}" \
         --sysinclude="${STAGING_DIR_TARGET}${includedir}" \

Cheers,
