And, AFAIK, a static lesstif lib will not work now that Xt is a DLL. I don't know why it is still in the package. I would think that lesstif-0.93.91-6.sh should be passing --disable-static to configure and that would keep this from being built/installed. Do not use that lib. Move it out of the way. You should be linking with libXm.dll.a, although -lXm should just do that. > make > make tests > > The errors occurred here.

This was very confusing. As far as I can tell, these > libraries are not part of lesstif,(are they?) > Libtool may have taken care of this for you, although I don't know why it isn't now. Look in libXm.la.

Look in the <package>.sh script to figure out how to do one manually.
