 Is it some type of magic? It had no problem, and libx11 has installed just
 fine. Building process has taken about three hours though, but I guess
 it's normal for 1Ghz PPC adding all dependencies there.

 The thing is I did clean beforeand tried to install without success, I
 didnt try build.args-append V=1 and -v install though but how could this
 have any influence on success of the building?

 This time I also installed Gimp as separate bundle and when it started it
 used X11 could that be a reason the things started to work?

 Yet another question:
 If I have this problem again with any other package how would I copy all
 log with -v , it is too large to send here, I mean it is three hours of
 non-stop lines of code responses?
