Greetings!
   I am trying to build the client from source tarballs.  I am following the steps outlined at 
      http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:build-howto-linux:x2goclient
   I have downloaded and untarred the nx-libs_3.5.0.13 full tarball.

   after I
      cd nx-libs_3.5.0.13/nxproxy
      autoconf
      ./configure --prefix=/custom
      make

   I get the following:
if [ -x makedepend ] ; then \
                        makedepend -I. -I../nxcomp -I. -I../nxcomp \
                        -I/usr/include/g++ -I/usr/include/g++-3  -f Makefile Main.c   2>/dev/null; \
                fi
touch depend.status
gcc -c -O3 -DVERSION=\"3.5.0\"  -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -DPACKAGE_URL=\"\" -DX_DISPLAY_MISSING=1 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -I. -I../nxcomp  Main.c
g++ -O3 -DVERSION=\"3.5.0\"  -DPACKAGE_NAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_TARNAME=\"\" -DPACKAGE_VERSION=\"\" -DPACKAGE_STRING=\"\" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT=\"\" -DPACKAGE_URL=\"\" -DX_DISPLAY_MISSING=1 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Wnested-externs -o nxproxy Main.o  -L../nxcomp -lXcomp
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXcomp
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [nxproxy] Error 1

Do I have to compile/install anything in the nx-libs parent directory beforehand?
Thanks!
