Dear Netland, We have OpenWindows 2.0 installed, and are pretty happy with it, but when we try to install net-posted stuff for X11, always find that various include files and/or libraries are missing. Do you know anything about what if anything we would have to do to have a "full" X11 within OpenWindows? I hate the idea of simply installing the whole mess in parallel with OW... Is there a simple list of libraries which one can copy from a host of identical architecture to "complete the set?" A frivolous example: when trying to install xinvaders we find that libXaw.a and libXmu.a are absent. Thanks in advance for any enlightenment! Cheerio, Rick Rodgers R. P. C.

Do you know anything about : : etc.. a lot of X programs hardcode stuff into /usr/local/bin,lib,include/X11 you may have to make symbolic links (if you have them) of $OPENWINHOME/lib to /usr/local/lib/X11, etc...

When I installed Openwin, I set OPENWINHOME to /usr.... That way the man pages went into /usr/man, the lib's went into /usr/lib, the bin's went into /usr/bin, the includes went into /usr/include, the fonts went into /usr/lib/font, etc.... It also eliminated the need for MANPATH, FONTPATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc...

I'm not sure why this X11 topic is appearing in comp.windows.news, but to answer the question... In V2, OpenWindows does not contain the following libraries: libXaw.a libXaw.so.4.0 libXdmcp.a libXmu.a libXmu.sa.4.0 libXmu.so.4.0 If you have need of them, building the libraries from the Consortium sources and installing them in $OPENWINHOME/lib should work fine. I'm not aware of any dependencies on files being in /usr/lib for these libraries, but if I'm wrong, a symbolic link to /usr/lib/X11 is easily made. And while you're installing the libraries, you'll want to copy include/Xmu include/Xaw Xdmcp.h into $OPENWINHOME/include/X11.
