Description w.stiller 2004-12-03 02:03:21 CET

All novice examples compile and build without any errors. However, the following
linker warning appears right at the end for ALL examples:

/usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
warning: libXm.so.3, needed by
/home/stiller/geant4/tmp/Linux-g++/exampleN01/libexampleN01.so, may conflict
with libXm.so.2

Nonetheless the examples (except for exampleN03) work fine. Do I have to worry
about the warning or is it meaningless? Where does it come from and what causes it?

Thank you for your help

The problem is due to linking two different versions of Motif libraries (in this
case LessTif and OpenMotif 2.2). Getting rid of one (in my case LessTif) Motif
installation solves the problem. It is critical (compare to bug report no. 700).

Closed. Identified as a system configuration problem.
