[comp.windows.x] need help with xfig

merrell@wallaby.mrc.uidaho.EDU (05/05/89)

I hope this is the appropriate place for the following query:

I've heard a lot about the program xfig (produces "fig" files which can be
translated to LaTeX, postscript, etc.) so I thought I would try it on our
system.  I found a copy by anon ftp on cayuga in Rochester and grabbed it.
After a little "tweeking" on the Makefile it compiled up to the point of
linking.  Then the following error stopped it:

          ld: cannot find library for -lXmu

We don't have this library file, so the appropriate line in the Makefile
was changed from:

          SYSAUX_LIBRARIES = -lXmu -lXaw -lXt -lX11

to: 

          SYSAUX_LIBRARIES = -lXaw -lXt -lX11     # took out -lXmu

I wondered how far it would continue without this library file.  Not too
far.  The final error is as follows:

          ld: Undefined external -
                  _getwd
                  _XtDatabase

We are running HP-UX 6.5 on a 9000/320.  X11 is release 2.  If anyone knows
where I can get this library file, and perhaps anything else I may need to
get this thing up and running, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Thanks in advance,

Xmu comes with X11R3, which you can get via FTP from expo.lcs.mit.edu.
