I am on MacOS and am still running an fvmw2 version 2.6.5 binary I compiled back in 2014 on two OSes and older development tools. Does anyone have instructions on how to build fvwm for the latest macOS and XCode tools?
I obtained fvwm-2.6.6.tar distribution from the http://fvwm.org root page. My ./configure with the version 2.6.6 aborts. I added echo to show shell variables before the abort. Do I need to use set CPP to use clang? $ ./configure …snip… checking whether it is safe to define __EXTENSIONS__... yes CPP gcc -E CFLAGS -Wall -Wno-implicit-int -g -O2 CPPFLAGS configure: error: " configure is not able to compile programs with warnings. Please remove all offending options like -Werror from the CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS variables and run configure again." $ Question 2: If I find this on my own, is there a platform-specific tips page for tips for compiling the distribution. The fvwmforums.org does not seem to be very active. tks, jw
