RE: Compiling source, was RE: [newbie] Make errors
I do have the xpm-devel package installed. So in theory... I never let data get in the way of a good theory! Actually I tried to install LM 7.0 but was never sucessful. For some reason after rebooting when DrakX finished, the keyboard and mouse would get frozen and I could never logon. I suspect a hardware problem (Gateway Solo P3C laptop, P120, 40Mb) but it isn't severe enough to break a RH install. Any idea how to find out where the install is looking for the X_LIBS. env doesn't offer any clues? Any other ideas? -P -Original Message- From: Necrotica To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 6/14/00 7:49 PM Subject: RE: Compiling source, was RE: [newbie] Make errors Do you have the devel packages installed for both?

RE: Compiling source, was RE: [newbie] Make errors
Thanks, I tried the longer path definition to no avail. I'll admit, I'm using Redhat 6.0, not a Mandrake distro. There is no /usr/X386 directory. The wine configure.in file has an entry that is clearly where configure trips... dnl *** Check for -lXpm AC_CHECK_HEADERS(X11/xpm.h) [ dnl *** If X11/xpm.h exists... AC_CHECK_LIB(Xpm, XpmCreatePixmapFromData, [ AC_DEFINE(HAVE_LIBXXPM) X_PRE_LIBS="$X_PRE_LIBS -lXpm"],, $X_LIBS -lXext -lXpm -lX11 $X_EXTRA_LIBS ) ], and then the text of the error that prints when configure chokes on me. It seems that $X_LIBS can't be found. How do I identify what the current state is? Env offers no clue.

RE: Compiling source, was RE: [newbie] Make errors
Out of curiousity (not a flame please don't take it as one) why are you posting problems that you're having with a Red Hat distro to a Mandrake list? Yes, mandrake is based off of RedHat, but it's compiled for Pentium machines (both causing new problems and alleviating RH problems) and contains many newer versions of various packages than Red Hat does. Yes, from the command line the two distros look almost the same. you get into admin tools and mandrake is quite a bit different. You may have better luck getting your various issues solved in a RedHat forum of some kind. Good luck getting your problem fixed, if I know I'd help ya out. -David Talbot At 04:33 PM 6/14/00 -0400, you wrote: Thanks, As I indicated in another reply, I'll admit to running RH 6.0, not a Mandrake distro.

Re: Compiling source, was RE: [newbie] Make errors
Did you compile it yourself or did you try "rpm --rebuild pack.src.rpm"? Maybe there is a BAD solution you could try : make a symlink from /usr/include/xpm.h to /usr/X11R6/include/X11/xpm.h. This is not nice, but there are chances that it works. But hopefully, someone will have a better solution. If you don't get any other answer here, you could also try the expert mandrake mailing list.
