Introduction to LessTif
The LessTif package contains an Open Source version of OSF/Motif®.
Dependencies
Required
Optional
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug \ --enable-production --with-xdnd && make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.95.0
Install the package
make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.95.0 install
Command Explanations
--disable-debug: Do not generate debugging information.
--enable-production: Build the release version of the LessTif libraries.
--with-xdnd: Enable XDND GNOME compatibility support.
rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.95.0: This installs the documentation into an appropriate directory instead of the non-FHS compliant /usr/LessTif directory.
mv -v /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/mwm /etc/X11: The mwm configuration directory is moved to its proper FHS location in /etc/X11.
ln -v -s ../../../../etc/X11/mwm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11: A symlink required by some legacy applications is created pointing to the mwm configuration directory moved in the previous command.
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
sed -i -e 's:-L$L/lib:-L@libdir@:' \ -e 's:-L/usr/X11R6/lib:$XL:' \ scripts/motif-config.in && CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug \ --enable-production --with-xdnd --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib && make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-0.95.0
Install the package

Short Descriptions
motif-config | is used to find out configuration information for packages needing to link to the LessTif libraries. |
---|---|
mwm | is a window manager that adheres largely to the Motif mwm specification. |
mxmkmf | is the LessTif version of xmkmf which creates a Makefile from an Imakefile. |
uil | is a user interface language compiler which translates a plain text description of the user interface of a Motif application into a machine-readable form. |
xmbind | configures the virtual key bindings of LessTif applications. |
libXm.so | is an OSF/Motif® source code compatible library for the X Window System. You can download an excellent reference guide (mainly for programmers) for the Motif-2.1 specification from http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/lesstif/6B_book.pdf. |
