hi
I try to build ratpoison from source on mac os x 10.5.4 (Intel).
- the latest X11 package is installed X112.2.3 (http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/wiki/X112.2.3)
- installation of the latest ratpoison (1.4.3):
-- $ mkdir -p ~/installs/ratpoison
-- $ wget http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ratpoison/ratpoison-1.4.3.tar.gz
-- $ tar xfvz ratpoison-1.4.3.tar.gz && cd ratpoison-1.4.3
-- $ ./configure
....
configure: error: *** Can't find X11 headers and libs
(for the complete ./configure output see at the bottom of the email)
What can be done here?
- specify the path of headers and libs?
- installing a devel version of X11?
- ... ?
thanks for your help with this.
Ben
