I just can not compile ghostscript 4.03 on Solaris 2.5.1.
I get the following error when I try to compile it:

.

.
/bin/sh <ldt.tr

ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to gs

make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `gs'

There is X11R6 on the machine. Does anybody have any idea why I can not compile this?

thank you in advance

You need some additional Libs: -lSM -lICE -lnsl -lsocket
Look into your makefile and add them at the appropriate places.

Perhaps you need to supply a modified library path?

IME the standard place for X11R6 is /usr/X11R6/{bin,lib,include}, which
is where your gs Makefile maybe looking, and hence not finding the libs.

I think he should just use the standard Solaris 2.x X libraries, I asume
that works even for recent versions of gs?
