I don't have /usr/include/Mrm,uil,Xm and thus don't have any entries
in ld.so.conf for them.  Should I have these files?

What files are installed in /opt/geda/share and /opt/geda/lib?

I don't have /usr/lib/xorg.  Should I have this?  Is it an indicator
of the newest X11?  Does pcb need it (indirectly)?.

Some of the other stuff in ld.so.conf isn't relevant to my setup.
Other than what I specifically mention above, all the files the I
think I should have are there.

Thanks for the info,
