Circular dependency observed

Hi Team,

• My target switch OS is, /home/user # uname -a Linux MARVELL_LINUX 3.10.70 #1 (closed) SMP Fri Jun 19 07:41:25 IST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

• I'm trying to cross compile tcl/tk libraries dependent for python2.7.12 and observed below error. /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11

• Since it showed libX11 is a dependent library, downloaded libX11 source code and tried to cross compile.

./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi CC=arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi-gcc CXX=arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi-g++ AR=arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi-ar LD=arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi-ld CPP=arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi-cpp --disable-loadable-xc --disable-xthreads --disable-xcms --disable-xlocale --enable-xlocaledir --disable-xf86bigfont --disable-xkb --disable- composecache --enable-malloc0returnsnull --prefix=/home/balaram/MOXA/libx11

• During make, observed below error, /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lxcb

• Then downloaded libxcb-1.14.tar.gz and during compilation faced similar error, /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lXau

• For xauth-master.tar.gz, below error observed:

 configure: error: Package requirements (x11 xau xext xmuu xproto >= 7.0.17) were not met:

 No package 'xmuu' found

• For libXmu,

  make[2]: Entering directory '/home/balaram/MOXA/libXmu-master/src'
  CCLD     libXmu.la
  /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux- 
  gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lXt
  /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux- 
  gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
  /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux- 
  gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11
  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
  Makefile:509: recipe for target 'libXmu.la' failed

Now, X11 library is needed, but we are compiling these as dependent for libX11.

• Tried to compile libXext as well, same issue faced.

 make\[2\]: Entering directory '/home/balaram/MOXA/libXext-master/src' CCLD libXext.la /home/balaram/MOXA/le/armv7_latest/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-marvell-linux-gnueabi/4.6.4/../../../../arm-marvell-linux- gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:486: recipe for target 'libXext.la' failed

Now we are in circular depdendency. libx11 -> libxcb -> libXauth -> libXmu -> libXext ->
