FWIW, on BSD, the Motif library still requires libXp, but it is handled
automagically by the shared library system, and explicit linking of libXp
by Xastir is not required. In this case, installing libXm forces an install
of libXp, and the libXm library is properly linked to bring in its shared
library dependencies, so it's all good.
The problem was apparently on one system back in 2007 (which, according to my
email archives, was a SUSE system), which didn't do this properly.
I can proceed two ways --
- wait for lots of folks to check the procedure above and see if it breaks
their build and report in that it does. If nobody reports that it breaks,
check it in.
- check it in, and wait for the complaints when it breaks someone's build.
Votes?
