[XMakemol-bugs] strange error: Motif library '-lXm' could not be found

[Krisztian Kohary]

Hi,

I recieve "Motif library '-lXm' could not be found" error
message when trying to install xmakemol-5.15 in my $HOME
directory on SUSE10.

I find this strange as libXm is installed in /usr/X11R6/lib.

Ok, this is what I actually try to do.

I run 'configure' with the following options

============================================================
#!/bin/tcsh
./configure --prefix=$HOME/xmakemol-5.15\
            --exec-prefix=$HOME/xmakemol-5.15\
            --with-motif-includes=/usr/X11R6/lib\
            --with-motif-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
============================================================

which gives me the following error

============================================================
configure: error: The Motif library '-lXm' could not be found.
                Please use the configure options '--with-motif-includes=DIR'
                and '--with-motif-libraries=DIR' to specify the Xm location.
                See the 'config.log' file for further diagnostics.
============================================================

Some further outputs below:
a) configure stdout
b) command 'ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm*'
c) config.log

b) Executing the command 'ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm*' gives:

Any idea what the problem could be?
