Hi, folks!
I am trying to compile WindowMaker 0.80 under Cygwin.
I have read the README and INSTALL files and did all the things they tell me
to do (at least, I guess I did).
However, after running the configure utility, I ran the make utility and, at
the end of the compiling process I get an error and the program is not
built. The lines that show the error are:
" ....
Making all in Examples
make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/wm/WindowMaker-0.80.0/WINGs/Examples'
/bin/sh ../../libtool --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -o connect.exe connect.o

"
I also figured that, even though the INSTALL file tells me to run a program
called ldconfig after I run make, I do not have a ldconfig.exe in my Cygwin
distribution.
I am not a C programmer, nor I am a Linux experienced user.
Can anybody
a) help me and tell me how to successfully compile WindowMaker under Cygwin?
b) tell what is the program ldconfig?
I tried searching for these answers in the mailing lists archives, but (for
some reason I don't know) the pages in the archive do not open in my
computer (I always get a time-out after a minute or two).
I am running Cygwin 1.3.6 under Windows 2000 SP2 (Brazilian Portuguese). I
downloaded WindowMaker-0.80.0.tar.gz from windowmaker.org.
Thanks in advence,
