Didn't work for me on Centos 5 (Redhat Enterprise 5)!

The best way is to install apps - is through yum.

Unfortunately for the moment of article there were no ddd in available repo's on the moment of install, and the procedure above was used to get it working.

You can check repo's, may be there are any working version that can be installed.

If no, to get your problem solved, you have to put output, you got for the moment of installation, there or in some another discussion place, and than it would be chance that somebody can resolve this problem.

The other option is to ask RedHat or CentOS packagers to make package of ddd for current subversion.

If you still need a help, you can post your error output in process of installation there.

I did with this first:

yum install gcc-c++ libX11.i386 libX11-devel.i386 libXmu.i386 libXmu-devel.i386 libXt.i386 libXt-devel.i386 openmotif-devel-2.3.1-2.el5.i386

Hope it helps you!

Thanks Soukron!

I am using debian-base Ubuntu distro at the moment, as much more friendly for development.

It has much better developers packages base. For me in my placement apt also works faster.
