Re: FVWM: trouble building fvwm-2.2.4 with xpm

Xpm installed itself into /u/asl/opt/usr/openwin. The include/X11/X11 directory
really does exist. What it installed (under /u/asl/opt) is (ls -RF):

I have also tried the following command:

> LDFLAGS=-R/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/lib ./configure --with-xpm-library=/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/lib --with-xpm-includes=/u/asl/opt/usr/openwin/include/X11 --prefix=/u/asl --enable-extras

I get the following error (snippets):
