It could also built the clients using the local Motif, but I don't know if the result would also nuke the original Motif. (I don't know if this was fixed in the update) 2) I have a port that has extra features for Motif 2.0 but doesn't detect the version used. I desactivated the new features to test if it builds, but the real port should use 2.0. Perhaps there should be a flag for Motif 2.x? cheers, Pedro.
