>Description:

The following FreeBSD patches for lesstif-0.85

patch-af
patch-ag
patch-ah
patch-ai
patch-aj

create a bizarre directory structure:

/usr/X11R6/share/doc/LessTif/doc/...

and use inconsistent data paths.  One consequence of
this is that the images are in a place:

/usr/X11R6/share/doc/LessTif/doc/images

where the www html files:

/usr/X11R6/share/LessTif/doc

can't find them.  The images directory must be
immediately below the directory where the www html
files reside.

The following patches use $(datadir)/doc/LessTif:

patch-af
patch-ag
patch-ah

The following patches use $(datadir)/LessTif:

patch-ai
patch-aj


>How-To-Repeat:

	N/A

>Fix:
	
All of these patches must use the same data path.
If I had to choose, I would prefer $(datadir)/LessTif.

Or you could do what I did: simply discard all of the above
patches and use only the following patches:

patch-ab
patch-ac

This gives a nice, clean installation in /usr/X11R6/LessTif.

The patch author was obviously trying to avoid putting LessTif
directly under /usr/X11R6, but that location doesn't bother me.
