Firstly an extract from the README found in Afterstep-1.8.8.tar.gz
====<start>========
LIBRARIES
+---------+
The following libraries are not necessarily required to run and enjoy
AfterStep however, support for them is included within AfterStep and
it's
various Modules.
o xpm (ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/X/)
o jpeg (ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/)
o png (http://www.cdrom.com/pub/png/pngcode.html)
====<finish>=======
I obtained the following files from the above sites (or mirrors)
xpm-3.4i.tar.gz
jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
libpng.1.0.9.tar.gz
zlib.tar.gz (zlib-1.1.3 (latest version - required by libpng)
and then compiled/installed them according the README/INSTALL
instructions within those tarballs. And then reran the make and make
install from Afterstep-1.8.8
As far as I can tell Afterstep now works correctly on my test system. I
normally use KDE as my GUI, so I'm not a good judge of the correctness
or otherwise of Afterstep.
Usual disclaimer - YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary)
Cheers
