Re: Latest LessTif from ftp.hungry.com solved X Segfault


The most uptodate LessTif binaries are always available from
http://www.lesstif.org.  I always distribute latest Lessif binaries from
Lesstif.org.
The XtWidgets errors are because of conflicts with libXma.a, which is unable
to create a requested widget.

You might consider updating X11R6.4 the Cgwin-xfree-ss-dev.tar.gz  quoted in
my preious mail, contains X11R6.4 from XFree86 4.0 snapshots.  XFRee86 team
fixed hundreds of bugs X11R6.4
