    I believe that this problem is an old and common one; my apologies for
    disturbing everyone with it.

    I am running Linux, Mandrake 8.2. I have downloader abiword-1.0.3.tar.gz,
    put it in a directory under /root, and unpacked it as per usual; I have
    run first autogen.sh and then configure, and these run fine.

    But then when I run make I get the following error:

    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXi
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    make[5]: *** [AbiWord_s] Error 1
    make[5]: Leaving directory `/root/abiword/abiword-1.0.3/abi/src/wp/main/unix'

    Now here is the record of the command: ls /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi:
    /usr/X11R6/lib/libXinerama.a /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6@
    /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so@ /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6.0*

    and here is a record of the command: grep Xi GNU*
    GNUmakefile:GTK_LIBS = -L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -rdynamic -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11 -lm

    Thanks in advance for all help/advice/suggestions.
