I have an alpha server 400/233 (Avanti). The compile is actually going okay but the linking is not. The linker is not behaving the way I expect it to. The compile creates a SO that is libXt.so.6.0 but when I try to link against it with -lXt I get "unknown object" or whatever the error message is when it can't find a shared object. Only when I create a symlink to it that is libXt.so will it find the shared object. Do I just need to give gcc/ld more options or what? Thanx for any help you can give.
