- Yes, the imake config template of SLS seems to be broken. You can
- certainly install the app-defaults files by hand, but this is a
- temporary relief and not real remedy; and the problem will bite you
- again when you build other X applications under your setup or upgrade
- Seyon. Better fix the imake template. Shouldn't require changing more
- than a couple of lines. In the mean time, you have to install the
- app-default files as follows:
-
- install -c -m 0444 Seyon.ad /usr/X386/lib/X11/app-defaults/Seyon
- install -c -m 0444 Seyon-co.ad /usr/X386/lib/X11/app-defaults/Seyon-color
