Hi
This may be more appropriate for blfs-support. Anyone?
I did wonder...
That's quite odd. I wish I still had a copy of Maple-9.5. We had a site license at school, and it installed on Solaris. I'm no expert on the linker either, so this is all guesswork. First, could you give more details on the install program? Is it kicked off by a shell script, is it pure java? Have you ever had problems with the linker before? Could you root around in /tmp/install.dir.2870 and see if there's any configuration files it's set up?
The 'install program' is a short shell script (called installMapleLinuxSU, which I've attached to this mail) which checks you've got a gui running and then launches the main binary installer (LinuxInstaller.bin, which I can't attach because it's bigger than my mail server's limit).
I've not seen any problems with the linker before. I installed both firefox and thunderbird as binaries and didn't have any problems. I've also compiled numerous packages since I finished my LFS.
I'll dig in the temporary directory now and see what I find. Thanks for you help. Dave -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
