Trying to compile nedit-latest-sources-HEAD

[Eric Bouyoux]

Hi,

I successfully compiled nedit on Mandriva 2007. The goal was to see if
the current CVS version of nedit still needs (or not) the
XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS variable to be set to "1" because the nedit 5.5
version pre-compiled for linux needs this variable. If not set, the X
server crashes either when starting nedit or when exiting.
The result is : CVS version still needs this variable.

To be honest, I don't know if I did everything properly.
I installed the following packages : openmotif, openmotif-devel,
libxpm-devel and libxpm-static-devel.
I modified the Makefile.linux to set the LIBS variable to the following :
LIBS= -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXm -Wl,-Bdynamic -lXp -lXpm -lXext -lXt -lSM
-lICE -lX11 -lm

Regards.

Eric.
