In regard to: compiling ddd on centos 5, Rob Messer said (at 11:22pm on Jun...:
I am running CentOS 5 (which is basically the same as RedHat EL5), with
xorg-x11 7.1 and gnome. I have tried to configure ddd-3.3.11, as well as
3.3.11-test2 and 3.3.11-test5. When I run ./configure, it fails (for all 3
versions) at this point:
checking for XOpenDisplay in -lX11... no
configure: error: The X11 library '-lX11' could not be found.
Please use the configure options '--x-includes=DIR'
and '--x-libraries=DIR' to specify the X location.
See the files 'config.log' and 'ddd/config.log'
for further diagnostics.
Rob-
Did you do what the message suggests, and look in the config.log and
ddd/config.log? If you search in config.log for XOpenDisplay, you'll
probably find something along the lines of:
configure:27702: checking for XOpenDisplay in -lX11
configure:27732: g++ -o conftest -O2 -Wall -fpermissive conftest.cc -lX11 -lSM -lICE
>&5
Followed by a compile or link error. It's this error that is causing the
problem you're running into.
I think you should be fine using OpenMotif.
Any ideas to work around this or what to set x-libraries and x-includes to?
Anyone get ddd to compile under CentOS 5 or RedHat Enterprise Linux 5?
Thanks,
I'm building it under RHEL 5 right now, and didn't encounter the problem
you did.
By any chance, did you forget to install
libX11-devel
and
openmotif-devel
? Those packages will be needed for building any software like ddd.
Also, you are building a 32 bit ddd on a 32 bit install of CentOS 5,
right?
