Installing missing package that provides Xm/Xm.h

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 28144 / 2 Years ago, tue, may 24, 2022, 3:11:41

I'm compiling a software package that requires a header file. The header file is missing from my Ubuntu 11.10 (64-bit) installation. During the compilation using make, gcc and gfortran, I receive the following error message.

XMstr.c:7:19: fatal error: Xm/Xm.h: No such file or directory

Googling for an answer leads me to believe that a MESA library needs to be installed on my system, but I can't find an exact match for the package name.

What might be the name of the package that I need to install? Does the package have the same name on more recent Ubuntu distros?

You need either openmotif or lesstif header files which you can get this way:

# lesstif:

sudo apt-get install lesstif2-dev



# openmotif is not available in ubuntu repos

# but you can get it from it's official site:

# http://www.opengroup.org/openmotif/

# but it wants registaration before downloading.
