Hi all,

I am trying to compile something that uses X under OS X 10.5.5, but
cmake is unable to locate the X11 libraries.
The include path is located. The failure is while detecting libraries.
For example. libX11 exists in /usr/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib. Cmake does
not find this library, as it expects to find "libX11.dylib".
There is a libX11.la file from libtool, but is not used during search. I
suppose if the libX11.la was parsed, then the library libX11.6.dylib
would have been found.

Any ideas on how can I persuade cmake to locate the X11 libraries?

If you don't have /usr/X11/lib/libX11.dylib (which is a symbolic link to libX11.6.dylib), then your X11 installation is incomplete. You must have removed this symlink accidentally. Or maybe you can blame it on Apple's installer which is known to occasionally forget files.
