Netscape LibXpm
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi. I installed Debian yesterday and I can't get Netscape to work: It gives netscape: can't load LibXpm.4.so or something like that. But when I check ldconfig -v, the library is really there. So, what's going on ?

That being the .netscape, ns_imap and nsmail directories. Hope that helps, Chuck

But when I check ldconfig -v, the library is really there. So, what's going on ? How did you install Netscape? Did you use the Debian installer or did you try to install it manually from the tarball? I downloaded the 4.06 version from ftp://ftp6.netscape.com/pub/communicator/4.06/shipping/english/unix/ linux20/professional_edition/ Then I untarred with tar - zxvf [filename]. Then I switched to root, and ran ns-install. If you used the installer, did you download EXACTLY the binary version that the installer tells you to download? I didn't use the installer, but where can I find it ? It sounds interesting enough to try it...

Hi Kris I overcame this problem a few weeks ago. ldd /usr/local/netscape/netscape will show you the problem IIRC you need to install the libc5 packages, on the 2.0 cd-rom these can be found in the binary- i386/oldlibs directory.
