I am not sure that this is correct...

Same question for PCB 20081128.

./configure shows 

--with-x                use the X Window System

but I can not find out what it means.
Current Gentoo ebuild script uses a --without-x argument to ./configure
when building for batch/server application.

But this argument seems to be obsolete now -- can not find it with grep.

And:

stefan@AMD64-X2 ~/pcb-20081128 $ ./configure --help | grep without-gui
stefan@AMD64-X2 ~/pcb-20081128 $ cat INSTALL | grep without-gui
       --without-gui       = specifies that no GUI will be built.  This

So --without-gui in mentioned in INSTALL but not recognized by
configure?

So how can we build without GUI for server?

Best wishes,

Stefan Salewski

OK, some people may wonder why I ask:
I try to support a package maintainer -- he is busy and is not active
using gEDA-tools.
