The X11 library is always required, but what varies is whether you have to tell the linker about it or not. I do my Linux builds in Ubuntu 12.04, and -lX11 is not needed there. I'll have to check what happens when I do add it there; I don't remember whether I left it off out of misguided command-line minimalism or because of a warning.

Since Ubuntu 12.04 went EOL over 2 years ago, have you considered building it on something more modern? At least to pick up the problems reported by later versions of gcc.

The downsides are error messages from compilers that don't recognize -Wno-narrowing.

The other option is to fix the warnings.
