[Bug: 21.5-b31] configure does not like my Xaw3d lib

Giacomo Boffi writes: I don't know why you haven't run into this before, but the change to configure was in 2008, and the required function is present in Gentoo Xaw3d. So you can blame it on Debian. No, it's the newer Debian that's broken. Could you try this patch to configure.ac, and run autoconf, then reconfigure? (Since I don't have an XEmacs build on recent Debian, I can't test myself, sorry, and the current code Works For Me on Mac OS X and Gentoo, which doesn't help you. :-/ ) diff -r 44b6923432fa configure.ac --- a/configure.ac Tue Sep 13 14:30:04 2011 +0900 +++ b/configure.ac Wed Oct 12 16:03:32 2011 +0900 ＠＠ -3895,22 +3895,24 ＠＠ *) XE_DIE("Unknown Athena widget set \`$with_athena'.
