Gernot, I also got Motif 2.0.1 from Metrolink and I actually have different question to you. What moitf archive you decided to install: rpm or tar? In any case, cpuuld you please check the user/group ownerships of the files from this motif archives. (like ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/Motif.* ) I myself got some strange numbers instead of some real users (like root) and groups (like bin). It happend with both rpm and tar archives. After I upgraded tar from 1.11.8-11 to 1.12-1 I managed to get reasonable ownerships (bin/bin) but only with tar archive. rpm still gives strange numbers.
I used alien_3.3 to convert rpm to .deb, but since ownerships were still bad, I just made a simple slackware .tgz package, it is not hard at all, you just have to modify motif.install file to look like slackware's doinst.sh and repack everything in a single motif-2.0.1.tgz file. After that I again used alien_3.3 to convert that to .deb. !!!! Suprisingly, alien_5 didn't work for this purpors. It does not convert .tgz packages properly. (after installation I still have /install directory). - Does anyone have any idea why? Alex Y. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
