My version of Xrandr doesn't need Xrender so I hoped it wouldn't be needed, guess I was wrong.... what does it need Xrender for?
The problem with the dependency is that currently we deliberately don't link to libXrender but load it dynamically so that it works on all platforms; so I guess we'll need to load libXrandr dynamically too.
Without it, I get:
configure:7306: checking for XRRSetScreenConfigAndRate in -lXrandr configure:7337: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/X11R6/include conftest.c -lXrandr -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXext -lX11 -lm >&5 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXrandr.so: undefined reference to `XRenderSetSubpixelOrder' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status configure:7340: $? = 1
I'm not really sure why that would be needed. What version are you using? Maybe I'm out of date? My system is RedHat 9 and I haven't done anything to upgrade the XFree86 (it's all version 4.3.0).
