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.

First, upgrade your version of libstdc++. Also, I would upgrade your version of xpm (I just checked and I'm running at xpm-3.4k-8mdk). With any luck that will help. The main thing is upgrading libstdc++ - thats what is causing your compiler to tell you that it cannot compile an executable. -Chris

This is a tricky question to answer, because it partially depends on what you're trying to compile. Most software cource that you download comes with a script called configure that checks your system, makes sure you have all the pre-requisites installed, etc. and creates special directive files t
