I recently saw post in this group regard "xanim" and I finally had some
time to download and build this app. To build "xanim" requires the use
of "xmkmf" to create a Makefile. When I tried to run make, the compile
failed on the first file since the compiler couldn't find Xlib.h. I
looked at the -I flags which make was using to run the compiler. I'm
typing this from memory so I may be wrong here but I think I saw the X11
include direct showing as "/usr/X11/include"? I looked there and there
were no X11 hearder files. Instead the header files were in
"/usr/X11/include/X11". I noticed too that the X11 header files can be
found in "/usr/include/X11" as well. My solution to this problem was to
hand edit the Makefile and then I was able to compile and install xanim.
It's nice to to be able to play .AVI files on my Linux box now. :)
As a side note I have to say that I've never had alot of luck with
building applications that require me to use "xmkmf". I think those
applications that use the "configure" script are alot nicer to work
with.
