Subject: Xboard

Hello,

Im using Ubuntu 5.04 Linux. I would like to use the lastest version of Xboard
4.2.7. I have downloaded the lastest tarball. When I run ./configure I get the
following error:

xboard requires the X Window System header files and libraries!

So I ran the line below to correct the above stated error message:

./configure --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include \--x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib

The line above ran fine (No Errors). So Then I ran the "make" statment and got a
lot of common.h, frontend.h, and backend.h errors. The last few lines ending
with:

In file included from ../parser.l:126:
backend.h:150: error: syntax error before "ParseOneMove"
backend.h:150: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
make: *** [parser.o] Error 1


Can anyone help me get this version of xboard up and running.

Thanks in advance!
