IMake is a XWindows replacement for make.  It uses a core template called
'imake.tmpl' that is installed with the XF32prog distribution.  Install
that and you should be OK.  I don't understand why it's not finding it, it
works just fine on my machine.

It doesn't matter if it's in the path or not, the path is not searched for
Imake. 

Try adding the '-I/path/to/directory-with-imake.tmpl' to your makefiles if
it's having trouble finding it.  See the imake man page's I option.
