BUILD FAILED /home/auro/jnativehook-2.1.0/build.xml:355: exec returned: 1 `

Please note I have already installed package 'xkbcommon' I have checked this using

apt-file search xkbcommon.pc libxkbcommon-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/xkbcommon.pc

Please help on build steps Thanks

See if you can also get x11-xcb and libxkbcommon-x11

[kwhat]

I will try to make this dependency an optional runtime dependency.

[kwhat]

As long as you have an xcb-proto package (PECL) I should be able to statically link the missing depends. That wont help you compile from src, but it should solve the runtime depends.

[kwhat]

xkbcommon will be a runtime dependency in 3.0.

[kwhat]

I plan on rewriting the keyboard stuff for X11 in 2.3 which should address this problem.
