xlib6 and xlib6g are both version 3.3.1-2 which I believe is the latest and greates from hamm. I keep my system right on the bleeding edge... I even tried reinstalling xlib6 just in case that helped. What version of Netscape are you using? The above was from netscape Communicator 4. I removed that and will try installing netscape 3 instead. > What I get is this: > [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]$ ldd /usr/lib/netscape/netscape > libXt.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6 (0x4000c000) > libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libSM.so.6 (0x4004e000) > libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libICE.so.6 (0x40057000) > libXmu.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXmu.so.6 (0x4006c000) > libXpm.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXpm.so.4 (0x4007e000) > libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXext.so.6 (0x4008c000) > libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libX11.so.6 (0x40097000) > libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 (0x40135000) > libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x40138000) > libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x401f6000) > > Once the libc.so.6 stops showing up I think you are safe. > > In general, it is a bad thing if libc.so.5 and libc.so.6 both show up in > ldd's output. > > Remco > > > -- > TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] . > Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . > -- William R Ward Bay View Consulting http://www.bayview.com/~hermit/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1803 Mission St. #339 voicemail +1 408/479-4072 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Santa Cruz CA 95060 USA pager +1 408/458-8862 PGP Key 0x2BD331E5; Public key at http://www.bayview.com/~hermit/pubkey.txt ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take off all your clothes and walk down the street waving a machete and firing an Uzi, and terrified citizens will phone the police and report: "There's a naked person outside!" - Mike Nichols -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
