I successfully built Lyx-1.2.0pre4 with my old xforms-88.1 library (Sparc-Solaris-8, gcc 2.95.3, gnumake) only to run into problems with screen rendering of graphics. So I tried to build it with the new xforms-89.6 library, only to find that the make now breaks on sigc++:
Making all in sigc++ gnumake[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/lyx-1.2.0pre4/sigc++' m4 -I./macros macros/object_slot.h.m4 > ./object_slot.h m4: bad option: -I./macros gnumake[1]: *** [object_slot.h] Error 1 gnumake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/lyx-1.2.0pre4/sigc++' gnumake: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 It appears that -I is not an option in the Solaris m4. I'd welcome a workaround suggestion. (I hope LyX hasn't become so Linux-oriented that it no longer compiles with standard Unix utilities.) Thanks, -- Ronald Florence www.18james.com
