[EMBOSS] How to exclude X11 when Compile Emboss

[Iain Drummond]

Jean,

Either tell emboss where to find the X11 libraries during the ./configure
step:

X features:
  --x-includes=DIR    X include files are in DIR
  --x-libraries=DIR   X library files are in DIR

for example

 ./configure  --x-includes=/usr/local/includes  --x-libraries=/usr/local/lib


or

decide not to use X11 at all

./configure --without-x

you can get this info by typing

./configure -help
