I am trying to install X11R4 on a sun computer. I am on a sun 3/50 with SunOs 4.1.1 and am using gcc 1.39. I downloaded X from giza.cis.ohio-state.edu and applied all 18 patches that are there. The entire make runs successfully with the exception of the mkfontdir command. The output reads: ../../.././fonts/mkfontdir/mkfontdir . ld.so: libXmu.so.4: not found *** Error code 127 make: Warning: Target `all' not remade because of errors Current working directory /scr/mit/fonts/bdf/misc The same error occurs later on in the 75dpi and 100dpi directories. The only place libXmu is referenced in either the makefile or c code in mkfontdir is in the makefile as $(XMUSRC)/libXmu.a. In that directory are the files libXmu.so.4.0, libXmu.sa.4.0, and libXmu.a. I created soft links libXmu.so.4 and libXmu.sa.4 to the respective 4.0 files, but that did not fix the problem. If anyone knows the answer to this problem, please email me. Thanks in advance Sullivan Beck beck@qtp.ufl.edu

The entire make runs successfully with the exception of the mkfontdir command. In R4, mkfontdir must be compiled static. When you use gcc, it doesn't recognize the -Bstatic option, so you don't get static linking. < Stephen MIT X Consortium
