[GRASS5] New MacOS X compilation errors

[Andreas Lange]

Hi Jeshua,

how did you do the update? Via CVS?

That looks to me as if there have been conflicts during the CVS-merge
operation. You can tell that by looking at the first line of the CVS
output logging that starts with a "C" in that case. 

If you are confused by this and don't know what to do, please do the
following:
Remove all source files that you edited by hand, but don't delete the
CVS-directories.
E. g.:
cd src/display/decices/XDRIVER
find . -name *.c -exec rm -f {} \;

And after that do a "cvs update" from this directory to get all source
files again. 
If you know which are the offending files, only remove them. 

I would suggest that you do not edit the source files unless you really
know what you are doing there.

That are the conflicting lines.

This line is commented in my local copy of the CVS source. 
Maybe you deleted the line from the CVS update and left the old version.

That has nothing to do with the error.

Obviously the X Window libraries are missing/not found.
Did you run ./configure _before_ you installed the X Libraries?
Then simply re-run ./configure (with the same parameters than the first
time) and re-run make and make install from the top source directory.

Please mail again if you have problems. But don't expect me to answer
immediately.

cu,

Andreas
