Kicks me out with the error: Linking... /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lX11 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Error: linker exited with status 1 dmd failed with exit code 1.

I installed DMD again, latest version I could find on their site. When I try to install the other dependencies, things start to get out of control. Apparently, each package needed has its own dependencies which need to be build too?

I just want my trusted tilix back... :-( without having to crap all over my fresh install. Worst of all, even when I said: okay, f it... let's do this and get all that dirt in.... I can't even get it running.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

You need to install libx11-dev. Generally, for "ld: cannot find -lfoobar" you need to locate a package that ships "libfoobar.so" (without any subsequent version number, e.g. not "libfoobar.so.6"). Go to https://packages.ubuntu.com/ -> "Search the contents of packages" to find the required package, its name is probably "libfoobar-dev" or something similar (a bit of common sense / guesswork might be necessary).

PS. At least you can fire up dub. For me it didn't work in 19.04 due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dub/+bug/1828466. I'm on 19.10 beta now, and I'm running into other kinds of issues (multiple definition of symbols) while compiling. I guess I should file another bug for them. :)

Do you need to compile it yourself, though? Ubuntu 19.04 ships a tilix-1.8.9 package.

Hey! Thanks for your reply! :-) I will try to find that package. I am an entire n00b still, so I really need some help with some things. I have Kali with KDE on another system and that is going great, however, ubuntu looks and feels so much more like... coming home, so...

There indeed is a Tilix package included but it is old and has an issue with transparency on my system. I found it odd that I needed to compile it, too... but I guess the dev didn't bother to put up new pre-compiled versions orso.

Anyway, that seems like quite the bug to run into... if a compiler doesn't work on an entire platform.

I guess I found the easy way...

It's a version released early this year. I don't think that counts old. Also I'm not sure if your transparency issue, whatever that is, is fixed with newer versions; maybe.

if a compiler doesn't work on an entire platform.

There's nothing wrong with your compiler, it works fine. It's just that additional files are needed to compile this particular project.

(Disclaimer: I'm a semi-random dude commenting here, not Tilix's developer.)

Hmm... the one I had on my system was a couple of versions older than the one I have now. But, helas, the transparency issue indeed is not fixed. Must be a GNOME thing or a graphics driver thing then, I guess. On KDE this version of tilix does not have that problem. However, that is on another system with intel integrated graphics. On this laptop I am on now, I can choose whether to run it via the onboard intel GFX or the external AMD GFX. Both have the same issue: the moment the window is not in focus, the transparency is gone. Doesn't matter which gfx chip i run it on. So must be a gnome thing.

The compiler not working, that I was talking about, was in regards to the issue you described with the symbols. I guess that's the same thing as the symbol files on windows? The ones you have to get from the web when analyzing a BSOD dumpfile?
