Compiling aterm with AfterStep themes support

Locura · 08-15-2003, 09:06 PM

I've tried following the instructions at http://aterm.sourceforge.net/themes.php#compiling for compiling aterm with AfterStep support. I have tried installing both the AfterStep 1.8.x and 1.9.x libaries as instructed on that page, and I still get this when I run configure in the aterm source directory:

Code:

Configuration:

  Aterm version:              0.4.2 : 06 September 01
  Source code location:       .
  Install path:               /usr/local/bin
  Compiler:                   gcc
  Compiler flags:             -O
    without any AfterStep integration.

  Transparency :                enabled
  Off focus fading :            disabled

  malloc support:             system default

The following are set in config.h

  utmp support:               disabled

  Type of 16bit:               short
          32bit:               int
          pointer:             (same as) int

  *** Please check src/feature.h for further options ***

Notice that it says, "without any AfterStep integration."

It's supposed to say something like:

Code:

      AfterStep libraries: -lafterstep -lasimage
       with AfterStep headers installed,
       with AfterStep MyStyles support available

Is there something I am forgetting? Because I can't see what I am doing wrong here.

Have you tried looking at configure --help?

Usually you need to enter something like
./configure --enable-afterstep

Or something of the sort.

--enable-aftersteplibs is I think what you're looking for.

Hope this is still needed. I was looking around for aterm stuff myself and would like to be a helpful newbie...
