Hi, This question is gonna sound simple and naive, but hey, I think more and more people will come from the same direction as I am.
I got the same error as talked about below. What I got is latest cygwin 4.10 with X11R6. They both install as binaries... so I wonder how much of the source I am missing to compile lesstif. So, I downloaded source for xfree86, untarred it in /usr/src/. Lesstif still can't find files. What exactly and where exactly is it looking and what exactly does it need? Thanks. Mike Why does it say I need X11r5 or higher when I have r6 ? Several people have reported build problems; the configure script looks for an X distribution and then checks whether it is X11R5 or X11R6. On some systems the configure script stops, saying configure: error: You must have X11 Revision 5 or higher to compile LessTif while the system actually has X11R6. Apparently this has to do with installations of Linux, in which the include files (under /usr/include) often contain symbolic links to the source directories (either on disk or on CD-ROM). In such a situation, if one either removes the CD-ROM, or cleans up /usr/src, the effect will be dangling symbolic links under /usr/include which confuse our configure script. The solution is obvious : make sure that your include files don't contain symbolic links to nonexistent files. Another possibility is that you simply forgot to install the X11 development package (e.g. X11-devel RPM) so that the related headers are not yet installed on your system. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
