It builds fine with the latest code in git.

Hi

think I fixed it. Can you test the latest code in git (branch v4.4.x)? You need to run ./autogen, ./configure and then make.

thanks for reporting

Hi,

xboard uses symbols from x11 but does not link to x11 explicitly. This leads to a build failure while using binutils-gold, which defaults to --no-add-needed.
 
Add -lX11, -lXt and -lXmu to xboard_LDADD fixes the problem.

For more explanations, see:
