Created attachment 1357 [details] Buildroot config X.Org should select jpeg, but for whatever reason it didn't. When I selected it manually it didn't appear to get built before it was needed by X11.
Build log available at http://pauljones.id.au/temp/build.tar.bz2
Sorry for the false alarm. It turns out that I misread the error message and misread the package help in menuconfig. The problem was actually that the ps2pdf utility is needed (on the host machine) from ghostscript to build documentation, and I had to recompile it to fix the linking error (I'm a Gentoo user.) Once Ghostscript was working correctly the problem was solved.

What package needed ps2pdf? Perhaps we can disable the doc build.

Added --disable-specs to the configure args in git, should disable doc build.
