Error....
/usr/source/xcoral# xmkmf
mv Makefile Makefile.bak
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X386/lib/X11/config
In file included from :3:
/usr/X386/lib/X11/config/Imake.tmpl:6: `#' operator is not followed by a macro argument name
imake: Exit code 33. Stop.
line 6 of /usr/X386/lib/X11/config/Imake.tmpl in the SLS release
contains
#define XCOMM #
but when using xmkmf this often barfs (the preprocessor hates it)
Is this expected behaviour?
anyway I changed the line to read (escaped the #)
#define XCOMM \#
and I can get xmkmf to work.
Why is this? Has everyone been relying on binaries and not making sources?
also (not so big a problem) at the link stage when using shared libaries
I get "... -O2 -L/usr/X386 /lib/X11/shlib/jump " where did the space come
from??? annonying but no big deal (it dosn't seem to come from anywhere!)
