trying to meet x11proto requirements

[Richard Bronosky]

trying to follow http://wiki.x.org/wiki/CompileXserverManually

This doesn't work in bash:
setenv ACLOCAL "aclocal -I /opt/xorg/share/aclocal"
So I used:
export ACLOCAL="aclocal -I /opt/xorg/share/aclocal"

Then in the huge list of protocol headers, I couldn't find a match for
the first thing on the list:
proto/x11proto 7.0
But I went ahead and tried:
apt-get install x11proto-xext-dev x11proto-bigreqs-dev
x11proto-xcmisc-dev x11proto-core-dev x11proto-fonts-dev
x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev x11proto-resource-dev
x11proto-scrnsaver-dev x11proto-video-dev x11proto-record-dev
x11proto-trap-dev x11proto-xf86bigfont-dev x11proto-xf86dga-dev
x11proto-xf86misc-dev x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev x11proto-composite-dev
x11proto-damage-dev x11proto-fixes-dev x11proto-randr-dev
x11proto-render-dev x11proto-evie-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev
x11proto-gl-dev x11proto-xf86dri-dev libxi-dev libdrm-dev x-dev
(I added x-dev and x11proto-core-dev to try to meet proto/x11proto,
and added libxi-dev libdrm-dev Based on Ross Burton's blog)

All seemed well, so moving on I encounter:
