RE: libXm.a + xmkmf

["Suhaib Siddiqi" <ssiddiqi at inspirepharm dot com>]

I have absoluitely no clue what are you attempting to do.  Editing cygwin.cf
file will
not miraclously do any changes in xmkmf file.  cygwin.cf files are used to
compile
X11R6 source tree under Cygwin Development Tools.  The xmkmf files in
/usr/X11R6/bin
and it is a plain text file which anyone can edit to adjust X11R6 install
path if you have
install path other than the one on xmkmf.

Second you are using X11R6.4 for B 20.1, and you ahve cygwin 1.1.x
installed.  Read
the URL at cygwin/xfree and it will tell you which binaries you need.
basically you need all the other stuff from
ftp:/sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/cygwin/xfree/xc-4-binaries, but X11R6.4 for B
20.1.

Suhaib
