Re: Lesstif update II


Oh... I don't think that will work because I don't believe that the Cygwin installer guarantees installation order (or maybe it was the order that the post-install scripts were run in)... but I could be wrong.

On the other hand, you could just add the same code that creates the links to the lesstif package... that way the links would be sure to exist no matter what.

It seems to me that a simple and maybe correct solution would just be to
have the lesstif package require the Xlib package.  That seems to make
sense and would assure that the links are made before lesstif (mwm) tries
to put something there.  What do you think about that?

I honestly don't know why.  I think it was something that was done by
the Xinstall.sh script.  Someone else with more X knowledge will have to
answer this question... however, I am perfectly willing to accept a
patch that maybe prevents the links from being created if the
directories already exist.  Or something along those lines.
