Hi,
Thank you very much for your reply. My OS system is DIGITAL UNIX V4.0F. Since
I sent the e-mail I was able to work around the bug (but still was not able
to run lyx ...) by compiling xpm and putting the files libXpm.a and
libXpm.so.4.7 in the directory
/home/ophelia/eldad/usr/lib
and then writing
setenv $LD_LIBRARY_PATH .:/home/ophelia/eldad/usr/lib:/freeware/shlib:/usr/local/shlib
however when I tried to run lyx I got an 'IOT trap'. So I wonder whether
this is related again to the xpm library or the IOT trap is unrelated, how
can I find out?
Thanks again,
Eldad.
