Hi

Xaw build fails when using BuildRoot (current CVS).

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/xorg-modular/lib/Xaw'
cd /usr/lib && rm -f libXaw.so && ln -s libXaw8.so libXaw.so
ln: creating symbolic link `libXaw.so' to `libXaw8.so': Permission denied
make[3]: *** [install-exec-hook] Error 1

The symlink should be made in $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/usr/lib instead of
/usr/lib.  Since I'm still not very familiar with autotool I currently
cannot provide a patch. Sorry for this. Probably lib/Xaw/Makefile.am
needs to be changed accordingly ...

BTW, I tried to find the transition guide (imake --> autotool) but
didn't succeed. Or is this one not yet available?

Best regards,
Stefan
