On your LFS system?

What if you do this? (or is this what you did?)

Download syncterm-1.1-src.tgz from the official project page
Extract the source
From the root of the source directory, cd to 'src/syncterm'
enter in 'make RELEASE=1

That should build the syncterm binary in

src/syncterm/gcc.linux.x64.exe.release

For me, it's not linking to any xorg or SDL2 libs:

ldd syncterm 
	linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffe9cfce000)
	libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f550d9b8000)
	libutil.so.1 => /lib64/libutil.so.1 (0x00007f550d9b3000)
	libncursesw.so.6 => /lib64/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007f550d975000)
	libtinfo.so.6 => /lib64/libtinfo.so.6 (0x00007f550d944000)
	libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f550d7fc000)
	libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f550d7db000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f550d5fa000)
	/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f550d9cf000)

Though I didn't do that in LFS, I did it in the slackware-build-essential
docker container 
(https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/andy5995/slackware-bui
d-essential/general)

Nice to hear!
