           Summary: libxcomposite-1_0.4.0 needs libxext
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: Angstrom 2008.x
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: org.openembedded.dev
        AssignedTo: openembedded-issues at lists.openembedded.org
        ReportedBy: trini at embeddedalley.com


If you try and build libxcomposite-1_0.4.0 without libxext being built first
you see:
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for XCOMPOSITE... configure: error: Package requirements
(compositeproto >= 0.4 x11 xfixes xext fixesproto) were not met:

No package 'xext' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed
software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables XCOMPOSITE_CFLAGS and
XCOMPOSITE_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

FATAL: oe_runconf failed

I worked around this by manually building libxext then re-running my target. 
No patch attached as I'm not sure if the DEPENDS += libxext is specific to
libxcomposite or if it should be in the generic include libxcomposite uses.
