Description of problem: The autoconf in FC6 will check libXt-devel for deciding window_system when it is not necessary. For example in compiling Emacs with GTK, if libXt-devel is not installed, the configure script generated by autoconf 2.59 won't be able to detect the window_system while GTK Emacs doesn't link to libXt at all. This bug seems to have been fixed in 2.60 see the change log: Revision 1.22 - (view) (download) (annotate) - [select for diffs] Sat Aug 12 18:33:46 2006 UTC (4 months, 1 week ago) by eggert Branch: MAIN CVS Tags: AUTOCONF-2_60a Changes since 1.21: +1 -1 lines Diff to previous 1.21 * lib/autoconf/libs.m4 (AC_PATH_X_DIRECT): Replace another check for libXt by a check for libX11.

This was already fixed (by Karsten), so I close * Tue May 16 2006 Karsten Hopp <karsten....> 2.59-8 - try to link with libX11 instead of libXt * Wed Feb 15 2006 Karsten Hopp <karsten....> 2.59-7 - XrmInitialize takes no argument (#181340) * Mon Feb 06 2006 Karsten Hopp <karsten....> 2.59-6 - check for Xlib.h instead of Intrinsic.h to find X11 headers (#176379)
