Dear Subhasish

If you paste the error message "cannot find -lXt" into the search box on the
amber mailing list archive http://amber.ch.ic.ac.uk/archive/

You will find many useful explanations of the cause of this error. The main
one being that you most likely do not have the X11 development libraries
installed on your system. You should install this. On my RH EL4 system this
is called xorg-x11-devel-6.8.2-1.EL.13.37.5.

All the best
Ross
