Hi In the Solaris environment in the big firm that I worked with previously, they have multi-version of anything, from Perl to Tcl/Tk, and even X.
We used the environment var LD_LIBRARY_PATH to give preference/order of the libraries that we use. Does this still applied to Linux? I tried to do it under Linux but didn't success. Here is what I tried: $ slocate import_ac3 /usr/lib/transcode/import_ac3.so /opt/old/usr/lib/transcode/import_ac3.so export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/old/usr/lib/transcode:/opt/old/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib $ /opt/old/usr/bin/transcode -i test-src.0.vbr.avi -y ffmpeg --export_prof dvd -N 0x2000 -E 48000,16,2 -o test-src.0.vbr transcode v0.6.14 (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich, 2003-2004 T. Bitterberg [...] [import_ac3.so] v0.3.2 (2002-02-15) (audio) AC3 /opt/old/usr/bin/transcode: relocation error: /usr/lib/transcode/import_ac3.so: undefined symbol: tc_test_string Here, the normal lib is preferred, instead of my old one. How can I fix that? PS. I've set the following, but didn't work. export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/old/usr/lib/transcode:/opt/old/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/lib/transcode:/usr/lib please help. thanks tong -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
