checking keysym definitions... Package xproto was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xproto.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable No package 'xproto' found configure: error: /X11 doesn't exist or isn't a directory I'm not sure what xproto.pc is and was not able to find anything helpful with searches... any suggestions? It looks like your system is missing a development package. I don't use Mint/Ubuntu/Debian, but x11proto-dev appears to be the one you need. xproto.pc is a file that tells pkg-config how the xproto library was built and installed, so that other software can link against it. If building fails again with another "No package 'xproto' found" style message, you can look up which package provides it by going to https://packages.ubuntu.com/ and using the "Search the contents of packages" option. Searching for "xproto.pc" shows /usr/share/pkgconfig/xproto.pc ==> x11proto-dev
