George Hartzell b9d7903cdb Add link dependency on xproto to xau (recent dependency mechanics changes?) (#5624)
* Add link dependency on xproto to xau

The libxcb build was failing like so:

```
1 error found in build log:
     [ ... ]
     131   checking whether to build developer documentation... yes
     132   checking for doxygen... /usr/bin/doxygen
     133   checking for dot... /usr/bin/dot
     134   checking for CHECK... no
     135   checking for XCBPROTO... yes
     136   checking for NEEDED... no
  >> 137   configure: error: Package requirements (pthread-stubs xau >= 0.99.2) were not met:
     138
     139   Package 'xproto', required by 'xau', not found
     140
     141   Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
     142   installed software in a non-standard prefix.
     143
```

This adds a link dependency on libxproto that allows the libxcb build to
succeed.

* Change more build deps to build, link

These were also necessary for emacs+X to build.

* Fix flake8 complaint

Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs multiple versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux, macOS, and many supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a new version of a package does not break existing installations, so many configurations of the same package can coexist.

Spack offers a simple "spec" syntax that allows users to specify versions and configuration options. Package files are written in pure Python, and specs allow package authors to write a single script for many different builds of the same package. With Spack, you can build your software all the ways you want to.

See the Feature Overview for examples and highlights.

To install spack and your first package, make sure you have Python. Then:

$ git clone https://github.com/llnl/spack.git
$ cd spack/bin
$ ./spack install libelf
