Hi,
I also tried to compiled Qpopper from Qualcomm but I could never get it
to compiled properly. It kept complaining about not finding the ndbm
library, even though I have it installed. I wound up finding a
pre-compiled copy for the mac68k architecture which I am using now.
Mosaic requires Motif libraries. You can get Lesstif (a Motif
substitute) or try to find a binary with the libraries statically linked
at compile time. I am using the pre-compiled binary I found in the
Amiga binary archive on ftp.netbsd.org. I am using a Macintosh, but
Amiga binaries will work on the Mac and vice versa.
