Hi, I was just about to ask the same question... I can't remember what the
configure script managed, but it wasn't perfect. when I make, I get the
following error: 
1%cd /usr/X11R6.3/include/X11/lesstif-0.81/ 
2%make
Making all in include
Making all in Motif-1.2
Making all in lib 
Making all in Xm 
make: don't know how to make  gdb-inline.o. Stop 
*** Error code 1 Stop.  *** 
Error code 1 Stop.  
3%

Having had a quick look at the makefile, I couldn't see anything 
blatantly wrong - it looked much the same as the others in include, 
Motif-1.2 and so on.

I was unsure where to unarchive it to, so put the wholelot into 
/usr/X11R6.3/include/X11
Will this cause problems?

I admit to being a complete X novice, but was hoping to use RiscBSD / 
lesstif to learn a bit about it. Hence the confusion.

Steve Hobbs.

PS. Is it just me, or is the whole 'make' system way too complicated???
PPS. Many thanks to all responsible for the port, nice work.
