I understand that you got an error line "You need at least fvwm-2.5.8". But there is also the second error line (there are 2 cases) that should explain what is your problem. Post this second error line if you can't figure what to do. > clutching at straws, i copied the /usr/lib/fvwm/2.5.10 directory to > /usr/lib/fvwm/2.5.8 and changed the version to 2.5.8 in > /usr/bin/fvwm-config, but it still fails. can anyone tell me how to > work around this to get the themes installed? thnks. This is not the correct way to fix the problem. I think you simply have several fvwm installations and the first fvwm-config in your $PATH is not from 2.5.10. In this case either uninstall the older version, or follow the advice from the error message, i.e. supply --with-fvwm-bindir option.
