You may want to try building with:

-Wl,-R/usr/X11R6/lib

which appears to be already done.

/usr/pkgsrc/editors/ted just built and installed fine for me under NetBSD
1.6.2. It does uses libXp:

         -lXp.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXp.so.6

What NetBSD version are you using?

Maybe you can get the configure and build logs saved and available via ftp
or http?

Thank you for trying Ted under NetBSD. I have used Ted off and on for
around 5? years and I am glad there is continued development.

If you have your latest Ted source available, I'd be glad to test with
pkgsrc under NetBSD and Linux (using pkgsrc).
