I have been given the job of porting the Xwindows server to a non-unix operating system. I have been given a SUN 386i workstation to use as a development system. The system is running SUN-OS 4.0.1. I felt it would help me to see a running Xwindows system. So I decided to download the source from uunet and build it. I uucp'd the first tape down to the SUN and proceeded to build it. The 'make World' went flawlessly. The problems started when I tried to do the 'make Install'. Everything goes along OK for a while, then I get the following errors: ../../.././fonts/mkfontdir/mkfontdir . ld.so: libXmu.so.4: not found *** Error code 127 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `fonts.dir' Current working directory /files1/home/users/xwindows/R4/mit/fonts/bdf/misc *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' Current working directory /files1/home/users/xwindows/R4/mit/fonts/bdf *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' Current working directory /files1/home/users/xwindows/R4/mit/fonts *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' I realized that I hadn't downloaded any of the fixes, so I grabbed them. Then I found out that I needed the 'patch' program, so I downloaded it and built it with no problems. After diligently aplying all the fixes I started all over again. The build again completed without a problem. The install failed in exatly the same place. I could try poking arround and renaming/copyinf files, but I thought it might be easier to ask people with more experiance. Does anyone out there know what I should do to get past this problem and complete my install. I would be happy with the name and address of someone who could help! Thanks in advance, Adam Messer
