There is a bug in the susewm makro

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 5.1, 1st Edition

Symptom:

There are many symptoms:

Cause:

The includehowto makro is not properly defined unless you install the howto package (series doc).

Solution:

Please edit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/susewm/lib/common/include.fvwm. This has to be done as user root.

Now please remove the line:

ifdef(`howto',`define(`includehowto',`builtin(`include',`/usr/doc/howto/.susewm-
howto')')',`define(`howto',``'')')dnl
and replace it by:
define(`includehowto',`esyscmd(test -e /usr/doc/howto/.susewm-howto && cat /usr/doc/howto/.susewm-howto)')dnl
Please make sure that eall of the apostrohes and accents are set correctly!

Anyway, it is much easier to just install the howto package :-))
