If the user gave the command line options `--x-includes=DIR' and `--x-libraries=DIR', use those directories. If either or both were not given, get the missing values by running `xmkmf' on a trivial `Imakefile' and examining the `Makefile' that it produces. If that fails (such as if `xmkmf' is not present), look for the files in several directories where they often reside. If either method is successful, set the shell variables `x_includes' and `x_libraries' to their locations, unless they are in directories the compiler searches by default. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
