Hello, I'm trying to install the emacs19.28 package from the 2.0.5R
dist.  I was able to install it, but now it complains:

%emacs
ld.so emacs: libX11.so.6.0 undefined error:0

I'm guessing that it is complaining because I do not have X installed
(ergo, no libX11*'s are installed).  I have no space for X on my drive
-- but I can't seem to locate exactly what file to take from an
archive to just get the libraries that emacs needs.

Does anyone know where they are available?
