i think all Debian architectures are similar enough that if it works on one, it should work on all of them. Some more things to check: Does it still link properly with "-Wl,-z,defs"? If you overlooked a library needed, the symbols will still be loaded as the library is pulled in later. If you want to be sure, take a look at all UND'efined symbols in objdump -T's output and make sure you have all of them in the libraries you are linking directly against. If you change anything with Xaw and/or Xt please make sure editres still works on your application. Xaw makes some funny little linker trick to modify Xt so that editres works by default, which fails if some symbols are loaded in the wrong order. > - maybe it's a good idea in general, and Debian xorg should be modified > to expand XawClientLibs to just $(XAWLIB) ? I fear it is a better idea to get rid of imake alltogether. While xmotd is unlikely to use anything from libxpm directly, other applications may. And as this was always linked against, applications do not otherwise state that they need it. > Hochachtungsvoll, Bernhard R.
