Although I suspect that Emacs is not the only port you will be having problems with, if your X11 libraries are not there, you can solve this specific problem by recompiling Emacs with WITHOUT_X11=yes. The Makefile at /usr/ports/editors/emacs20 of my recently CVSup'ed ports includes the following lines: .if !defined(WITHOUT_X11) CONFIGURE_ARGS= --with-x-toolkit --with-pop USE_XLIB= yes .else CONFIGURE_ARGS= --with-x=no --with-pop .endif So if you rebuild Emacs with WITHOUT_X11=yes it will not use any X11 libraries and you will be able to run it in your telnet sessions with -nw option or not, without having ld-elf.so (the runtime linker) that it cannot find some of the libraries required by the binary (like it does now). --giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
