openmotif and geomview

Submitted by cfg on Thu, 02/12/2009 - 22:30. General Questions
Hi,
I have a macbook with leopard os and I try to install geomview using openmotif but I get error message:
Can't find Motif header file Xm/Xm.h. Geomview requires Motif
(or Lesstif). See the file INSTALL.Geomview for details.

What should I do to use openmotif instead of motif
I typed the command ./confugure

Thank you
cfg

If you have the pre-installed openmotif you should to specify LD_LIBRARY_PATH with path to openmotif libraries.

If the error is "Cant find header file Xm/Xm.h", the problem has nothing to do with whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set properly;it's a compile-time error, not an execution-time error.

Check and ensure that the header files are there.
Does /usr/include/Xm exist?
Does it contain Xm.h?

If not, you don''t have Motif installed correctly.
