GNU objcopy --- but it's a bit *too* general; you'd need to extract the .dynamic section, edit it using some binary editing tool, and re-add it. I doubt there are any tools of the kind you're looking for because the details are too different between different systypes; even if someone had developed one, it's just as likely to be for Linux or Solaris as for *BSD, and as a result wouldn't be particularly useful. -- brandon s allbery [openafs/solaris/japh/freebsd] [EMAIL PROTECTED] system administrator [linux/heimdal/too many hats] [EMAIL PROTECTED] electrical and computer engineering KF8NH carnegie mellon university [better check the oblivious first -ke6sls] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
