Re: help with link error: undefined reference to XGetHostname

[Bob McGowan <rmcgowan at veritas dot com>]

Sorry, I shoulda' known you'd need it:

$ make
rm -f xtetris.exe
gcc -o xtetris.exe -O2 -pedantic -fno-strength-reduce -fnative-struct -m486 -g -Wall     -L/usr/X11R6/lib main.o init.o shape.o support.o notify.o window.o
score.o                  draw.o -lXaw -lXmu -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -lXt -lSM -lICE -lXext -lX11 -lXpm -lm      
score.o(.text+0x225): undefined reference to `_XGetHostname'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [xtetris.exe] Error 1

Looking at this, I see some libraries included twice.  And the second to last, Xpm, I added to get past xpm related link errors.

Thanks.
