This creates problems with the header files. If you get the following or a similar compiler error, this fix may be for you: -~~~ -lib/xpp/include/xpp/proto/randr.hpp:3026:42: error: use of undeclared identifier 'xcb_randr_get_monitors_reply'; did you mean 'xcb_randr_get_providers_reply'? -~~~ - -**Fix:** You will need to downgrade to `xcb-proto` to version `1.11-1`, I didn't have any luck with using `apt` to downgrade, so I grabbed the source files from [launchpad](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xcb-proto/1.11-1) and compiled from source. -You have to get both `xcb-proto_1.11.orig.tar.gz` and `xcb-proto_1.11-1.diff.gz`. - -Now remove the already installed `xcb-proto` package and run the following command inside the folder where you downloaded the files to.
