- To those people who've been send me messages telling me "you're missing
- a -lXt and -lX11", thanks but I know that. I'd really like to know
- *WHY* this is happening.
-
- I've examined the Imakefiles in the various client directories and there
- is no request for the indicated libraries (but there are in other client
- areas). As this was a clean tree freshly ftp'd from export, I'm rather
- confused.
-
- Can anybody help me, please?
