I apologize if this topic has already been covered; but, I am not a
regular reader of this groups and I can't find any reference to my
problem in the news which remains at my site.
I am a new installer of Xwindows and have just attempted to bring up
x11r4 under SunOS4.0.3 on a Sparc. I am attempting to put the
libraries in /usr/local/lib rather than /usr/lib. I followed the
instructions in the ERRATA file, but to no avail. LibXt still
contains references to the old path (i.e., /usr/lib).
According to the ERRATA, I should have placed the following in the
file mit/config/site.def:
#ifndef XFILESEARCHPATHDEFAULT
#define XFILESEARCHPATHDEFAULT
"/usr/local/lib/X11/%L/%T/%N%S:
/usr/local/lib/X11/%l/%T/%N%S:/usr/local/lib/X11/%T/%N%S"
#endif
#ifndef ERRORDB
#define ERRORDB "/usr/local/lib/X11/XtErrorDB"
#endif
Unfortunately, this does not cause imake to build a makefile which
differs in any way from the one it built prior to the additions. Even
adding a line like
XFILESEARCHPATH = XFILESEARCHPATH to site.def would not weem
to do the trick since the makefile to build libXt would not reference
the symbol it would define.
Am I doing something really stupid? Is the errata correct, or is
there an updated patch? Someone out there must have solved this
problem long ago.
