Linkage bug in ACEDB.
Dear ACEDB developers,
ACEDB is packaged and distributed in Debian and Ubuntu. Recently, it was
discovered in Ubuntu by Fabrice Coutadeur that ACEDB does not build with the
binutils-gold linker. This can be corrected by the following patch:
Description: add explicit link with libX11 as this is required by libgex.a.
This fix a FTBFS with binutils-gold with the following error:
"./libgex.a(graphgdkremote.o): undefined reference to symbol 'XFree'"
