Where are we with regard to compiling DX under RedHat 8.0? I've been using DX with RH 7.3 with no problem, but 8.0 is being just plain ugly. Below are my two attempts to set the DX construction machinery in motion. I'm about ready to cut my losses and load 7.3. Can someone suggest something I'm missing?
Thanks, Ned Piburn First I tried configuring from the dx-4_2_0_tar tarball. As you can see below, that failed in the navel examination phase. checking for time.h... no checking for types.h... no checking for unistd.h... no checking for values.h... no checking for wait.h... no O_RDONLY IS NOT defined by default checking for windows.h...

The configure script hardly got started when it fell on its bum. falstaff<70> CVSMake WARNING: Using auxiliary files such as `acconfig.h', `config.h.bot' WARNING: and `config.h.top', to define templates for `config.h.in' WARNING: is deprecated and discouraged.
