Hi all,

I know there has been a thread on wm-dev but maybe it fits here better
right now. Sorry for any inconveniences.

I'd call this a "very dirty" approach but for the impatient it might be
ok. ;-) - I'm running a slamd64-current right now and needed my old
windowmaker badly. The usual build procedure never ran fine because of
the x86 specific asm code used. (correct me if that is completely wrong
;-) )

To build windowmaker here I've searched for according x86_64 patches and
the one I used in the end was derived from gentoo. To be precise it's a
frugalware patch. I'll attach it but there might be better patches out
there.

Applying this patch fixes the asm part but there was another hurd to
take. windowmaker seems to always look for libfreetype in /usr/lib.
64Bit linux distros (as far as I've seen) have their 64 bit libs in
/usr/lib64. So I had to deinstall my X11 compatibility package (in
slackware freetype is included there) to get rid of the "wrong" 32bit
libfreetype files. Now I've just sym-linked the 64bit freetype files to
/usr/lib from /usr/lib64. - Compilation ran fine and that was it. No
errors in my logs as long as I haven't missed any.

I hope this may be of help in any way. If someone here knows how to
specify the libfreetype path manually then please let me know it. That
would make it a lot less dirty ;-) I've tried it with "--with-libs-from"
but that didn't help and a "LDFLAGS=-L/usr/lib64" was unsuccessfull too.

Bye,

 Clemens
