[bug-pcl] Problem building Ghostpcl...

I recently downloaded GhostPCL version 1.41 and tried to compile it on
an IBM x-Series 64bit server in Suse Enterprise 9 64bit (without
CYGWIN), but it keeps erroring.

 

I found out a few fixes from Kim Berg Hansen's problem about compiling
on a Compaq Tru64 UNIX
(http://ghostscript.com/pipermail/bug-pcl/2005-August/000356.html) but
at the "third error", instead of  the compiler not being able to find
"-ldl", it can't find "-lXt"... I am not sure if the error I have is in
the same place as his (hers?), but the surrounding code is similar
(shown below, from make product)

 

*********************

sh <./obj/ldall.tr

/usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux
/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so when searching

make[1]: *** [obj/pcl6] Error 1

make[1]: Leaving directory `/data/install.bits/ghostpcl_1.41/main'

make: *** [product] Error 2

*********************

 

The make fonts works fine, creating and filling /windows/fonts, and also
make cYGWIN=TRUE doesn't work, having the same error message as above.

 

My colleague managed to build and install 1.38 successfully on a 32bit
suse IBM server, so I tried this working one (because it just might!),
and again after applying fixes from Kim's post, I get the same error.

 

I have looked around, but as far as I am aware, the other bugs aren't
close to this.  Any help would be great!
