Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I tried to install xephem recently. It needed Motif. I installed the lesstif port by running 'make; make install' in '/usr/ports/x11/lesstif'. I ran ldconfig to read in the new libraries. I checked /var/run/ld.so.hints to see if my new files were in there. They were. I tried to install xephem again by running 'make' in '/usr/ports/astro/xephem'. It still complained about Motif. Does lesstif work in place of motif yet? Is lesstif still to underdeveloped to build with? Did I take the needed steps to install lesstif and have the shared libraries available for compiling ports that need Motif? Am I MUBAR? Thanks again, Jason Wells
