motif on fedora 8

Hi,

I tried to install openmotif-2.2.2 on a fedora 8. I downloaded the source tar and installed with make. Everything was fine execpt the demos but a guess that's because I used the configure and make instead of iMakefile.
I have a link to the libXm library (see below) but the code I compiled that uses this library cannot open it ...

the link to the library:

the makefile for my code:

The compilation works with some warnings but it works. However when I try to execute i have:

<br />
[david@localhost bin]$ pwd<br />
/home/david/ADELI/3p4/bin<br />
[david@localhost bin]$ ./xadeli2d<br />
./xadeli2d: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory<br />
[david@localhost bin]$

 

I don't understand this message since I have a link from libXm.so.3 to the libray libXm.so.3.0.1

Did I screw up in the makefile? I must say that I am new to making or modifying makefiles so this could be a stupid mistake.
Thanks,
david

 

It is OK that you use

It is OK that you use configure and make instead of imake, since imake isn't supported anymore. Did you run 'ldconfig' after 'make install'?

No I did not. As I said I am

No I did not. As I said I am pretty much a newby. I do make and make install but if it does not work I am kinda lost....I will man ldconf. thanks for the tip.

ldconfig is only necessary if

ldconfig is only necessary if you compiled your application immediately after installing Motif. If you reboot your computer, your library cache will be recreated on loading, so you do not need ldconfig.
If you have problems with loading libraries, you can try
ldd your_application
it will tell you which libraries it uses, where it takes them from, and which it does not find.
