[task #15481] X11 libraries for Ghostscript

[Boud Roukema]

Follow-up Comment #15, task #15481 (project reproduce):

Based on my testing on a system I'm using, this task should remain open.

It's OK as a "task", because on reading my log file carefully
enough, I see:


/scratch/boud/tmp/tmp_build_maneage_project/software/installed/bin/ld: cannot
find -lXt
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Problem in building Ghostscript
-------------------------------
Some necessary X11 libraries (that we don't yet install
within the template) couldn't be found on your system, see
the 'ld' error message above. Please install them manually
so Ghostscript can be built.

For example if you use Debian-based OSs, run this command:
  sudo apt install libxext-dev libxt-dev libsm-dev libice-dev ghostscript

This notice will be removed once these packages are built
within the project (Task #15481).
-------------------------------


which brought me directly to this Task. :)

Trying the Debian recommendation, I only had to install one package:


The following NEW packages will be installed:
  libxt-dev 


After this, I no longer get the warning message.
