Plus it has that cool antique look - looks great in the corner beside xclock :) Dag has stopped updating it, but the EL4 packages from http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/xosview/ work just fine in FC6/7... For 8T2 I had to recompile. That took two changes: 1) spec file line 37 - change dependency from xorg-x11-devel to xorg-x11-proto-devel 2) snprintf fails to detect by configure which causes the compile to fail. The problem isn't with the snprintf code but with the x lib detection a few hundred lines earlier that end up causing a stray -L being passed to the compiler when running the snprintf test. I really didn't dig through the detection code - but if you change the code around like 3327 from case $host_os in linux*) LIBS="-L$x_libraries $LIBS" ELF_LINK_FLAGS="" ;; to case $host_os in linux*) if test "x$x_libraries" != "x"; then LIBS="-L$x_libraries $LIBS" fi ELF_LINK_FLAGS="" ;; you'll get by... If you care you can figure out why $x_libraries isn't set properly - for me the quick workaround was good enough. Peter.
