Re: Issue starting Gorm, ProjectCenter, GWorkspace..etc on netbsd 5.0.2

[Fred Kiefer]

Hi Nick,

with Nicola's findings I think it is important to have a look at the
config.log and config.h files produced by configure. Somehow two
different versions of X11 are found and this is a problem in itself and
needs to be fixed. And this may resolve your original issue as well.
Are these directories actually different or is one a link to the other
and where could the wrong one come from? Here you should check your path
environment variable:
echo $PATH

Cheers
Fred
