LDFLAGS is the variable used by the Makefile when invoking the
linker.
I've always wondered about this....
Whenever I download other packages that require XPM, I never have to
explicitly set LDFLAGS (SunOS-5.7); in fvwm is has to be set by hand.
Why is that ? Why is there a distinction and can't configure.in (Paul S. :-)
be fixed in fvwm ?
For instance, xscreensaver-3.32 doesn't require this explicit setting
(www.jwz.org/xscreensaver). My command lines for xscreensaver looks as
follows,
$ ./configure \
--prefix=/download/xscreensaver-3.32/done \
--with-xpm=/download/xpm-3.4k-solaris
xscreensaver even adds the include/lib subdirectories appropriately
to the compile procedure.
Couldn't fvwm do the same exact thing ???
Today with fvwm I have to do the following,
$ setenv LDFLAGS -R/download/xpm-3.4k-solaris/lib
$ ./configure \
--prefix=/tools/download/fvwm-2.3.32/done \
--with-xpm-library=/download/xpm-3.4k-solaris/lib \
--with-xpm-includes=/download/xpm-3.4k-solaris/include
Thanks
