I recently started working again in ubuntu5 in parallels on the mac
for real (tired of carrying the ubuntu laptop around too...), and I
noticed that to get awt tests to run, I needed to install both
libxmu-
dev and libxtst-dev, even though the non-dev versions were around.
Why do we need the -dev versions of these?
And is this documented? I looked at the getting started docs and
other things, and couldn't find anything.
The awt code attempts to load the unversioned, libXmu.so, rather than
the versioned, libXmu.so.6 (for X11R6). Debian-based distributions
don't include these unversioned files in their non-dev packages.
I think we decided that we should attempt to load the known-good
versioned .so files first and if that fails try to load the
unversioned
.so.
Meaning "we have a plan, but not implemented"? If so, can you point
me where to fix this?
