Hi, I picked up xforms 1.0rc4 from ftp.lyx.org/pub/xforms/OpenSource/ and built it with an install directory of /usr/local/xforms. I ran "xmkmf -a" and then make. Mostly this went well except when the make tried to link fdesign it couldn't find the X libraries. I patched the fdesign/Makefile with a "-L/usr/X11R6/lib" and then it worked fine.
I untarred the lyx-1.2.0 source again and ran configure ala`: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/lyx --with-extra-lib=/usr/local/xforms/lib --with-extra-inc=/usr/local/xforms/include/X11 At the end it died saying: Configuration Host type: i686-pc-linux-gnu Special build flags: included-libsigc C Compiler: gcc C Compiler flags: -g -O2 C++ Compiler: g++ (2.96) C++ Compiler flags: -O -fno-exceptions Linker flags: -L/usr/local/xforms/lib Frontend: xforms libXpm version: 4.11 libforms version: 1.0.0 LyX binary dir: /usr/local/lyx/bin LyX files dir: /usr/local/lyx/share/lyx **** The following problems have been detected by configure. **** Please check the messages below before running 'make'. **** (see the section 'Problems' in the INSTALL file) ** Cannot find libforms or libxforms. Please check that the xforms library is correctly installed on your system. == Version 1.0.0 of xforms might not be compatible with LyX, since it is newer than 0.89. You might have slight problems with it. deleting cache ./config.cache The directory /usr/local/xforms/lib contains: [root@notebook xforms]# ls /usr/local/xforms/lib libflimage.a libflimage.so.1.0 libformsGL.so libforms.so libflimage.so libforms.a libformsGL.so.1 libforms.so.1 libflimage.so.1 libformsGL.a libformsGL.so.1.0 libforms.so.1.0 [root@notebook xforms]# The directory /usr/local/xforms/include/X11 contains: [root@notebook xforms]# ls /usr/local/xforms/include/X11 flimage.h forms.h glcanvas.h [root@notebook xforms]# The options I gave to configure are much like the ones I use when building 1.1.6fix4 so I am not sure where the problem lies here. What should I be passing to configure so that it finds the xforms libraries on my computer?
