 Hi,
 
 
 Well i know that inside libforms88 is the lib libforms.so.0.88. I 
have 
 already install this package. Thats why i found it curious. The file 
 libforms.so.0.88 is in my /usr/X11R6/libdirectory.
 What is happening? Why cant `DAP' find this lib?
 
 (DAP said: can't load library 'libforms.so.0.88')
Have you already tried ldconfig?

Hi,

Do you mean executing ldconfig before DAP? If yes, i did it and nothing 
new happened. if not, what do you mean tring with ldconfig?
DAP is still saying bad things...


Thanks for helping,

FWIW, could this be a libc5/libc6 problem?  Maybe one of libforms or
DAP is built against libc5?  Try using strace with DAP and see if it
actually is finding the lib but just can't load it.

Hi Phillip,

Ldconfig should be run every time that a new shared library is installed.
Otherwise programs would not be able to dinamically load newly installed
libraries. When needed, dpkg does this automagically, but if you manually 
install a new library then you should manually run ldconfig.
