Hi All, I have just moved from RedHat and have progressed with the learning curve of moving to FreeBSD. I'm running 11.1-release #0 r321309 amd64. I have installed Xorg and am running WindowMaker 0.95.7 successfully. Both installed using "pkg install <***>" Out of interested I wanted to try the more recent WindowMaker 0.95.8 and downloaded the source from http://windowmaker.org/. I followed the how-to of extract and configure steps but am having problems with .configure step. The script stops with the information:- "checking for Xmu library... configure: error: library Xmu not found" however, Xmu library seems to be installed as reported by cd'ing to /usr/local/ports/x11-toolkits/libXmu/ and issuing "make install clean". The command reports the library is already installed. Also I find the *.h at /usr/local/include/X11/Xmu. However I cannot find a .lib file - should I be able to, and if so why does ports think it is installed. Clearly, I am misunderstanding what the error message is telling me. Thus, I would be grateful if someone could give me hint of what is going on, I have Googled extensively but cannot work through this issue - so am posting here. Many thanks for any help!
