You didn't have to do that :-) I tried your changes and did indeed get further. I also had to hack the Makefile.config (in the x11 dir) to include /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include. Also, a few of the Makefiles had carriage returns at the end of every line, and that also caused gmake to bork. Oh, I had to change configure in one other spot too to include /usr/local/include. After that it compiled everything! Did all that happen because they were using an older version of autoconf to create the configure script? > other things. Hope this helps a bit.

Yeah I think I'll email them, though I'm a newbie when it comes to autoconf/ automake. I'm about to teach myself though because (a) it's about time I learnt and (2) I need to learn to package up some software I'm working on. :-) Thanks muchly for your help! sam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
