# To subscribers of the xforms list from "R. Lahaye" <lahaye@users.sourceforge.net> :
Hi,
I have FreeBSD 4.5 (most recent version) on my PC.
I successfully compiled Open Xforms.
I only changed XFormsInstallDir in Imakefile into "/opt",
the rest I left untouched (all are "YES"). Result:
129586 /opt/include/X11/forms.h
9568172 /opt/lib/libforms.a
13 /opt/lib/libforms.so -> libforms.so.0
2400862 /opt/lib/libforms.so.0
The LyX configure-test for Xforms fails as follows
(please see for contents of conftest.cc below):

-----------------------------------------------------------------
To my great surprise the following solves the problem:
# cd /opt/lib
# ln -s libforms.a libxforms.a
# ls libxforms.a
10 libxforms.a -> libforms.a
I then replace "-lforms" by "-lxforms" in the g++-line above
and it simply compiles! What's going on?
Regards,
Rob.
