xcb-xrm not found when installing polybar
I have installed polybar and most parts of it is working, except for reading Xresources.
I do get a nice error message like this one
warn: No built-in support to dereference ${xrdb:color15:#555} references (requires `xcb-util-xrm`)
and it sounds rather straightforward. Just install it and it should be fine.
But I've installed libxcb-xrm-dev and I still get the same issues.
So I thought that maybe I have to recompile polybar, but it is not working(it compiles but no change). and what is interesting is that it doesn't seem to find xcb-xrm when compiling.

So why wouldn't it find xcb-xrm ?

There are several ways to solve this problem. I see you are using the build.sh script. Here the easiest way is to pass the -f flag to the script when running it, like so: build.sh -f
This will force polybar to completely reconfigure itself and thus also detect the xrm dependency.
If you are not using the build.sh script, the remaining two ways are to either
- Delete the
builddir (this is whatbuild.sh -falso does) and runcmakeandmakeagain - When running
cmake, additionally pass the-DWITH_XRM=ONflag, this will force enable xrm support. If you are familiar with it, you can also usecmaketo change theWITH_XRMvariable toON
