openmotif won't build on Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

[mdekauwe@…]

Hi,

I have tried getting the ports of ddd and nedit to work both fail due to their dependency on openmotif. I have tried reinstalling the latest version of mac ports and that is all set up fine. If anyone can help as Im very dependent on ddd for my debugging and very used to nedit for text editing.

Thanks...

E.g. for ddd

$ sudo port install ddd

Openmotif builds OK on Leopard for me. Are you still seeing this error when you try to build?
