You really should give some detail about your system and what you did,
otherwise we have to guess.

The error probably indicates that the X11 development is not installed.
I suppose that the installation was done on a Linux system? Then you
have to install the X11 development which comes with your Linux
distribution. In addition, a C-compiler (gcc) and a Fortran compiler
(g77) are absolutely needed. openmotif is required for the GUIs.

I do not know where you got this fromn, but you really should install
the X11 from your distribution instead of these files.

Kind regards,
