I am getting the error message ld: library not found for -lXaw
I know that i need to get X11 Athena Widget and i can do that through libxaw7 in a Linux Machine.
i am an OSX newbie and i am not sure if i can do that using homebrew? or another packaging manager?
is there any way to get that on OSX?
Regards,
Found this fix for my error:
To check if you previously installed the library in your machine run the command on your terminal
I was looking for libxaw so i searched for "Xaw"
$ find /opt/X11/ -name "*Xaw*"
you should see an output of the search mine showed that i had libxaw7 which is what i was searching for

If not you can use homebrew to download the libraries https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-x11
or you can just install xQuartz from https://www.xquartz.org/
I was still getting the error then i realized that i needed to pass the flags
export CFLAGS=-I/opt/X11/include && export LDFLAGS=-L/opt/X11/lib
learned that the toolchain won't find x11 in /opt from this post.
