- OK. Let me tell you the whole story. I have the X shared libraries
- in /usr/X11R6/lib. When I try to compile the demo X program using,
- "gcc -o Xdemo Xdemo.c -L/usr/X11R6/lib -I/usr/X11R6/include -lX11"
- I get an error message saying it can't find libX11, even though the
- shared (sa) library is there. I thought I read some where that you need
- the lib*.a, lib*.sa, and lib*so, so I thought the lib*.a file being
- missing might cause the problem. I guess for ELF, one of those library
- types is not needed. I thought it was the lib*.sa. At least,
- this is the way my Linux PC is set up.
-
- Is someone compiling X programs on the Amiga using gcc 2.7.2 and the
- current X ELF distribution? I suppose something else could be wrong.
