Re: emacs 21.3 wants "libXaw3d.so.5"; got Xaw3d-1.5.tar.gz; NOW WHAT?

[David Combs]

Is there anyone who has actually "made" a 21.3 on Solaris (9) (Sparc)?

If so, perhaps you can tell me how *you* did it?

How?

I downloaded it -- having gotten the error message saying
it was missing, I went to google and searched for it,
found it, and downloaded it.  That's where it came from.

And, here's a search through all the file-names
that existed a few days ago (before that download)
on my computer and all its disks:



(Note: I don't even program not in C but in something
totally unrelated -- so for some of the things
you ask, I have neither answer nor understanding.)

Here's all mention of xaw in emacs 21.3's "configure" and "Makefiles":

What does it suggest that I could do?
