Hi,

I have exactly the problem described in the install FAQ, namely my
returned error when trying to run configure is:

>checking whether gethostname() is available... yes
>checking for Xt Revision Number 6... no
>checking for Xt Revision Number 5... no
>configure: error: You must have X11 Revision 5 or higher to compile Lesstif
>[ryan@ramona lesstif-0.92.26]# 

But I checked my symbolic links and they do exist.  Is there any new
info as to why this happens and how I can fix it?
My configure.log shows:

>configure:4808: checking for Xt Revision Number 6
>configure:4820: g++ -fPIC -o conftest -g -I/usr/X11R6/include conftest.c 1>&5

Thank you for any help.
