Re: Error on compile - /gossip-idle.c:54: undefined reference to `XScreenSaverAllocInfo'

Adam,

A good guess would be that a "devel" package for X11 needs to be
installed from your distro.

On my system, an FC4 clone,  XScreenSaverAllocInfo is defined in

        /usr/include/X11/extensions/xscrnsaver.h

which is provided by

    xorg-x11-devel
