Mac OS X "dsm" widget error

Submitted by Anonymous on Thu, 05/02/2002 - 19:45. General Questions
I installed OpenMotif 2.2.0 on my Mac OS X (version 10.1.4) machine. I had previously installed XDarwin (XFree86 4.2.0) without issue.

When I build any motif-based application, I get the following error message when trying to run it

Error attempt to add non-widget child "dsm" to parent "appname" which supports only widgets

I see similar errors when I try to run many of the binaries that were installed into /usr/local/bin by the OpenMotif installer.

Am I missing something? Thanks for any help you can give.

Always the first thing to check is the link order -lXm -lXt ?

Yep, OM on MacOSX 10.1.x is officially "broken". For more info, see about 3 threads down.
