Hi Lewis,Last time (3 years ago) during the fresh installation, I did not remember tuning for flat_namespace variant.
But I will keep this in mind in case of I need to make a fresh install. Thanks. Best Xiaoqiang On 11/17/2016 04:43 PM, J. Lewis Muir wrote:

OK, thanks for confirming.As you said, the key issue is the flat_namespace flag. Luckily Macports handles that automatically if the xorg-libXt is installed as a dependency to openmotif.I'm not a MacPorts expert, but my understanding is that it does *not* handle that automatically. If you update your local ports tree and rebuild, I think it will fail on x11/openmotif because x11/xorg-libXt was not built as a flat-namespace shared library. In order to build x11/xorg-libXt as a flat-namespace shared library, you will need to enable the flat_namespace variant for x11/xorg-libXt. That doesn't happen automatically. Regards, Lewis
