Re: xemacs 21.4.17 install problem

First I created an automount point to do the build: /packages/xemacs_21.4.17 I downloaded: glib-1.2.10 gtk+-1.2.10 jpeg-6b tiff-3.7.3 zlib-1.2.3 Xaw3d-1.5 xemacs-21.3.17-src -elc -info -sumo-2005-12.8 I created a subdirectory called "xsrc", where I compiled all of the add ons (with gcc). I used the --prefix option to install them into an "xlib" directory. "gtk" needed a few soft links to glib, but it compiled. I compiled all of these with the latest version of "gcc" I had (3.3). Xaw3d was a tougher nut to crack. I loaded that into a release of X11R6.4 that we had running here. I had to rebuild all of the "include" files because the "imake" soft linked them to a directory that didn't exist. It wouldn't compile with gcc, but it would compile with Sparcworks. Then I untared the -src into an "xemacs-21.4.17" directory, and ran configure as follows: ./configure --site-prefixes=/packages/xemacs_21.4.17/xlib --prefix=/packages/xemacs_21.4.17 --with-gtk --with-jpeg --with-png --with-xpm --x-libraries=/packages/X11R6.4/lib --x-includes=/packages/X11R6.4/include Then I ran "make". I had to copy "libjpeg.a" into the "xlib/lib" directory. I had to link "xlib/include/X11" to the directory with "xpm.h" in it. I also had to link "glibconfig.h". I have several version of Gcc and sparcworks available to me. It only seems to work with the older ones. When I tried the latest version of gcc I got an X11 library error, that I didn't get in the older verions. When I tried the latest "forte" C compiler from SUN I got several syntax errors. So I went back to the "pre Y2K" versions of Gcc and sparcworks. That's as far as I've gotten. For every compiler I would remove the "-src" and start over. Sorry to take your time guys, and yes, I probably did something stupid. Can you see what it is from this? -- David W. Bishop dbishop(a)vhdl.org All standard disclaimers apply.
