Some Unix-a-likes cache information about libraries. If that's the case with yours, tell it to rebuild the cache. On Linux, you need to use ldconfig. Not sure about other systems, but I bet whatever it is will be listed in the SEE ALSO section of the ldd manpage. -- header FROM_DAVID_CANTRELL From =~ /david.cantrell/i describe FROM_DAVID_CANTRELL Message is from David Cantrell score FROM_DAVID_CANTRELL 15.72 # This figure from experimentation _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list Boston-pm@mail.pm.org http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
