error: M*tif has not been found
 

hi everybody,

i tried to install xmgrace in SLED 11.0 x86_64 OS.

"zypper install grace" shows that xmgrace is not available in the repo.

zypper install grace

Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
'grace' not found.

hcg:/home/hcg/Desktop/opium-v3.5-src/testdir/params #

zypper install xmgrace

Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
'xmgrace' not found.
Resolving package dependencies...
Nothing to do.

so i downloaded a tar file of xmgarce grace-5.1.14.tar.gz from

ftp://plasma-gate.weizmann.ac.il/pub/grace/src/stable/.

But when i use ./configure script, it gives following error:

checking for XpmCreatePixmapFromData in -lXpm... yes
checking for xpm.h... no
checking for X11/xpm.h... yes
checking for a Motif >= 1002 compatible API... no
configure: error: M*tif has not been found
.

I checked the forum,found a thread

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ight=Motif+API,

but rpm for 32 bit are there, which are openmotif-2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma.i386.rpm
openmotif-devel-2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma.i386.rpm.

But i want(i suppose) for 64 bit, am i right?

From where should i try to get Motif libraries etc.

thanks in advance

regards

yes you need 64 bit libraries for 64 bit program compiles.

for LGPL http://lesstif.sourceforge.net/
for OpenMotif http://www.openmotif.org/filebrowser...otif/2.3/2.3.2

last one has rpms, too.

Suse 11 SLED :

# zypper in openmotif-devel xmgrace
.. will install the packages, if you have a Suse account.

no grace packages found.


which means open motif stuff is there, but grace is not there, so i just downloaded the grace from

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat...86_64.rpm.html

and then cheched....

i | xmgrace | A 2D-Plot-Program for Visualisation of Scientific Data | package


and further checked grace by plotting graphs and things like this...

e.g :~/Desktop/opium-v3.5-src/testdir/params> ./../../opium c.param c.log plot wa

gives nice graph of functions.

So it is done.....so credit goes to all of you.

Thank You very much.
