The change to reintroduce the libGLw.dylib seems like a rather bad idea. Ben Byer told me when Leopard was released that Apple decided to depreciate the libGLw support because Motif itself wasn't shipped with X11. To solve this, I created a mesa-libglw fink package with variants to provide libGLw libraries built against each of the possible Motif's (lesstif, openmotif3...which is 2.2.4 and openmotif4...which is 2.3.0). These are also explicitly linked against the Motif library that is used. Since the Motif headers used to build libGLw vary in the exact symbols that are defined, it is very bad form to try to use a single libGLw for all possible Motif libraries that could be linked into a program.

Ok. Well then /punt. It's gone in rc4, I promise. On Aug 30, 2008, at 06:42, Jack Howarth wrote:
