Hi,
I just upgraded to Debian unstable to get the Gnome2 desktop
( what a misnomer it is steady as a rock !) and found some confusing
things about the Poplog installation.
They have the 3.0.1 version of OpenMotif and when these libraries
are present it seems to make no difference whether you run
run_install or INSTALL_NOMOTIF the process proceeds on its own merry
way (after commenting out poplink_cmnd)and builds everything but
won't run it because it can't find libXm.so.2
I thought of running rebuilding.linux.poplog but saw that the
relinking at the end is the same command as in INSTALL_NOMOTIF so
gave it a miss for the time being.
I then purged Motif and installed xpdf to read Unix Text Processing
which is now a free download and which uses Lesstif2. Upon running
INSTALL_NOMOTIF again the installation appears to have picked up
Lesstif and so far all the bells and whistles are working.
It seems that Lesstif2 installs a libXm.so.2 in /usr/lib where it
is found by the installation.
While struggling with this I installed Mr. Isard's mini Poplog
which seems very suitable for a starter like me.
The following error message is printed to stderr continuously by the
Bham setup.
;;; WARNING - xtw: X TOOLKIT WARNING (xtRemoveGrab: grabError --
XtRemoveGrab asked to remove a widget not on the list)
The relevant section of the install.log is below
