[Solved] Build xfce for zLinux system

Hello everyone,
NEWBIE here on the forums.

Been using xfce for years on i386 and x86_64 Linux machines.

I was given 2 zLinux systems and asked to see if it can run the xfce desktop.
Currently they run SLES 11 SP2 and RHEL 6,
Does anyone know of any RPMs for s390x?

I did not find any builds for s390x or s390 in any RPM repositories.

So I decided to build the  fat tar image.

I have a working crosstool-ng setup that has been tested for s390x  executables.

I saw a post about sequence to build the needed packages does anyone have a complete sequence for the FAT- TAR images?
if they are different from:

    xfce4-dev-tools (only required if you build from GIT)
    libxfce4util
    xfconf
    libxfce4ui, garcon, libxfcegui4 1)
    exo
    xfce4-panel
    thunar
    xfce4-settings, xfce4-session, xfdesktop, xfwm4, xfce-utils 2), xfce4-appfinder, …
Thanks for any answers you might have.
