>Description:
I have pkgsrc from a few days ago.  I use X11_TYPE=native.

multimedia/vlc fails with the following errors from "configure":

    checking for XLIB_XCB... no
    configure: error: Package requirements (x11-xcb) were not met:

    No package 'x11-xcb' 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 XLIB_XCB_CFLAGS
    and XLIB_XCB_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
    See the pkg-config man page for more details.
>How-To-Repeat:
    $ cd pkgsrc/multimedia/vlc
    $ head -1 Makefile
    # $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.107 2011/02/14 19:03:18 drochner Exp $
    $ make show-var VARNAME=X11_TYPE
    native
    $ make replace
    [see errors mentioned above]
>Fix:
    Unknown.

    I see the comment "libX11 should be built with xcb enabled"
    in multimedia/vlc/Makefile, and I do have that, I think:

	$ pkg_info libX11
	Information for libX11-1.3.5:
	[...]
	Requires:
	libxcb>=1.1.93
	[...]
	This is from the modular X.org X11 project.
	[...]

    It's confusing (to me) that libX11 is from pkgsrc while
    I am using X11_TYPE=native, and perhaps this has
    something to do with the problem.

 Updated to a later NetBSD snapshot, 5.99.47 should work.
 I don't know another solution.

 I fixed it pulling in libX11 unconditionally, as you saw it doesn't
 help and just confuses.

 The same problem exists with NetBSD 5.0 (release) builds, if vlc
 isn't going to build there any more, maybe it should be marked broken ?

 I should also note, that unlike apb, the build for me does
 not cause x11/libX11 to get installed, the libX11 that's present
 is just the one from /usr/X11R7/lib (the normal one you'd expect
 when X11_TYPE=native)

 I do get libxcb-1,7 and xcb-util-0.3.6 installed as dependencies though.
