xmkmf -a

I have an old Imakefile with source to build an X11 program.
By typing in at the console xmkmf -a the make program stops with an
error at
MSimpleProgramTarget(program).

It seems that that there may be a discrepancy in one of the rules or
templates that are found
in /usr/share/X11/config

Not sure if this is the correct forum to ask this, but what is
happening here?

Hi
That looks like a motif error, do you have the motif devel pacakges
installed? Also what version of SLE and arch are you running?

Else try without the -a option as long as your running in the directory
where the Imakefile is.

I have OpenMotif installed, on a core-2 duo platform, running OpenSuse
11.3.
I’ve also noticed the same identical problem running on Solaris 10,
which has a CDE environment.
It seems that imake didn’t handle MSimpleProgramTarget properly or most
likely one of the configuration files needs further tweaking.
I did make one edit to Imake.tmpl to change a NO to a YES in regards to
HasOpenMotif2. No change. If I add a tab in front of
MSimpleProgramTarget(program), make still chokes on it, and I believe
that this is not what make will deal with.
