recordmydesktop-0.3.8.1 fails to build
Status: Alpha
Brought to you by:

both recordmydesktop 0.3.8.1 and revision 600 from svn fail to build with the same topmost error message:
rmd_getzpixmap.c:35:35: error: X11/extensions/shmstr.h: No such file or directory
There is a trivial workaround for this, apparently the shmstr.h file no longer comes with xextproto (I have 7.1.1 installed, running Gentoo) but instead there is a shmproto.h file. Changing two includes from shmstr.h to shmproto.h in the source of RMD allowed the build to succeed.
This has been fixed in the new GitHub project and will be included in the next
release. The project can now be found here:
