Add rule for X11 development files #190

Closed rtobar closed 4 weeks ago

rtobar commented 4 weeks ago

The imager package (and others) needs the X11 development headers and library. The lack of this rule has led to errors in GitHub workflows starting with ubuntu-24.04, where the package does not appear to come pre-installed anymore.

I very recently found out about this piece of infrastructure, so let me know if I'm doing something wrong.

I also found that the alpine images wouldn't build locally (curl couldn't resolve some hostnames, but wget could...). Should I treat those as local issues, or would you be happy for a separate PR moving alpine Docker images to use wget instead of curl?
