I tried to install lesstif and met following problem.

Steps performed as follows;
lesstif-0.94.4

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources# tar jxf
lesstif-0.94.4.tar.bz2
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources# cd lesstif-0.94.4
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/lesstif-0.94.4# patch -Np1 -i
../lesstif-0.94.4-testsuite_fix-1.patch &&

./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug \
--enable-production --with-xdnd &&
make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.94.4

The above went through without complaint.

1)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/lesstif-0.94.4# make
rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.94.4 install &&

mv -v /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/mwm /etc/X11 &&
ln -v -s ../../../../etc/X11/mwm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11

&&

ldconfig

make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/lesstif-0.94.4#

I did it 3 times.  Later I discovered

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/satimis# ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/ |
grep mwm
No printout

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/satimis# find / -name mwm

/sources/lesstif-0.94.4/clients/Motif-2.1/mwm
/sources/lesstif-0.94.4/test/Xm/mwm
......

mwm are there.

1. Please try to learn what information is needed and what isn't. You pasted the same commands that you typed twice in a row - if it didn't work the first time it's not going to work the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th time.

2. It is advisable not to compile packages as root, though I doubt that has anything to do with your problem.

3. If make install doesn't work then something must have gone wrong with the configure and make steps. Please don't just say "it went through without complaint - please copy the output, or at least the last few lines.

4. If make install doesn't work, then naturally you won't find lesstif or mvm anywhere in /usr/X11R6, since the make install command is what copies the program files to that directory.

5. The output from the find command above is in the lesstif source directory - of course you're going to find mwm there.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/satimis# ls
/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.94.4/

AUTHORS COPYING CREDITS FAQ README ReleaseNotes.txt BUG-REPORTING COPYING.LIB doc INSTALL.txt ReleaseNotes.html
<<<

6. This looks like the directory listing for the lesstif source directory, not anything in /usr/share/doc.


The directory was already there.

Please advise how to get this problem fixed.
