#21280 closed defect (fixed)

emacs +x11 requires xorg-libXmu

Description

When trying to install emacs with the x11 extension using the command port -v -d install emacs +x11 the install fails. The key is the message: ld: library not found for -lXaw

I attached the whole build log in case it is needed.

Installing xorg-libXmu first via port -v -d install xorg-libXmu and then building emacs with (the same command) port -v -d install emacs +x11 works.

I had this problem when trying to install on one Intel MacBook Pro and two PowerPC Macbooks. The solution worked for them all.

Port: emacs +x11 added

Is it Xmu or Xaw that needs added?

Is this just a duplicate of #21284?

[taking over as emacs maintainer]

I think this is moot now. Somewhere along the line (#21284?) emacs +x11 started to depend on xorg-libXmu and xorg-libXaw.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

emacs has depended on libXaw and libXmu for a while now.
