greetings,

the error you posted doesn't appear to have anything to do with libX11.. it
points to the location of (at least) this error.. the compiler is unable to
find 'arrayobject.h', which is part of the python distribution. if you
installed from rpms, did you remember to also install the 'python-devel'
package?

hope that helps.. please let us know! ;)

Regards,
J
