Hi,

We are trying to build the X-based version of emacs (18.55) under OW2.
The machine is a SparcIPC with the OW2 stuff preinstalled from the factory.
We are running SunOS 4.1.

The problem is that the X stuff is not where it is supposed to be.
After some fixes we are now able to compile all the source for temacs.
The linking however fails because libX11.a is nowhere to be found on the disk.
Instead we have things like libX11.sa.{4.3,1.0} ...

Question: Do we have to get libX11.a or can we get around with what we have?
          How?

Question: Are there other problems ahead of us?

We'd love to hear from somebody who has already solved that problem.
Thanks

Philippe
