|The problem seems to be that in libexec, does not reside `cpp`, but
|`cpp0`

|I don't see anything obviuos in the Makefiles, or *.mk files...

|Thanks for any help,

Since I wrote this, I forgot it, but yesterday decided to install MRTG
on my i386 box. Still no luck with xpm.

Searching for help on Google, I read a post from Hubert FEYRER
<http://www.monkey.org/openbsd/archive/ports/9802/msg00005.html>
from 1998.

For what I understand, the problem is that the packages tries to build
with imake, instead (nb|gnu)make.

Did someone succeed to build xpm ? Or is there a build option in MRTG to
get rid of all this X stuf I do not need ?

BTW, make readme says that there's *no* binary available for xpm. Related ?

Thanks,
