Dee, try this. Get libtool 1.2 from ftp.gnu.org. When you configure it, do so like this: ./configure --prefix=/usr then follow that up with the usual make; make install. WindowMaker should now build. I was having the same problems that you are. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jonathan Pater - Software Designer, TheImageGroup pater@imagegroup.com "People think love is an emotion.

Window Maker 0.50.2 still doesn't compile , as it gets the same error as before. I loaded everything except the 2 windowmaker rpms.
I got this to compile after alot of messing around. you need libtool-1.2 not the beta. I created an rpm of this for myself,then windowmaker compiled. i used the ./configure --prefix /usr/local --enable-gnome --enable-kde --with-gnu-ld strange as it may seem,tried the aclocal.m4 fix,but alas this failed to build. And i also tried installing the libtool-1.2 to /usr/local ,but this failed also.But the /usr/local is in the build path. after installing to /usr i got an error free build. I`ve rpm`ed the build,it installs to /usr/local but it may not be of any use to you as i have used options you may,or may not want.or use. Hope this helps. -- Myfish.
