Thanks Zac but that didn't do it.
When I run (as root), motif-config -l, I get this
[1] openmotif-2.2 *
so I do (also as root) motif-config -s openmotif-2.2 and I get
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Mrm': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/uil': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Xm': Is a directory
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Mrm': Is a directory
ln: `/usr/include/Mrm/Mrm': File exists
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/uil': Is a directory
ln: `/usr/include/uil/uil': File exists
rm: cannot remove `/usr/include/Xm': Is a directory
ln: `/usr/include/Xm/Xm': File exists
* /usr/bin/motif-config: New default Profile is: openmotif-2.2
after which I do USE="-nomotif" emerge xpdf and in amongs the spillage on the
screen I get
configure: WARNING: Couldn't find X / Motif -- you will be able to compile
pdftops, pdftotext, pdfinfo, pdffonts, pdftoppm, and pdfimages,
but not xpdf
So obviously something is not right with the openmotif install. Maybe it is
this particular version of openmotif as I used to use xpdf all the time without
incident. I will have to go through the emerge.log and find out when this
version was installed. In the meantime, any other suggestions would be
appreciated.
