Hey,
Quite the contrary: I actually configured like this:
./configure --with-x=no --with-cairo=yes --with-libpng=yes --enable-R-shlib
When you run:
capabilities()
What is your output? Mine is this:
jpeg png tiff tcltk X11 aqua
TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE FALSE
http/ftp sockets libxml fifo cledit iconv
TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE TRUE
NLS profmem cairo ICU long.double libcurl
TRUE FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE TRUE
I came across with the idea of recompiling without X11 because of this answer on StackOverflow
