Is this a later version of the libf2c.so.0 ??? Should I use that? Or is it something completely different?? I found a 1995 version which fits the bill, but its use would require that I overwrite a file out of my current libf2c.so.2 group. libf2c.so.0 will be an older version that's incompatible with libf2c.so.2. Try taking all the libf2c.so.0* files and putting them in /usr/local/lib then running ldconfig, and see whether 1. ldd finds them, and 2. the program doesn't crash when run. If it _does_ crash, the exact output and the output of ldd might help. I have obtained the source, but am leery about compiling it since I really am unfamiliar with that process. Do you know if the dependencies would remain, or would they change to the versions in my system?? If you install the -dev versions of all the libraries where necessary - probably just libc6-dev - it will depend on your current system, including f2c's current libf2c.so.2. -- Carey Evans http://home.clear.net.nz/pages/c.evans/ Larry froze.

You could also try `objdump --private-headers executable | grep RPATH' to see if there's a path to the libraries compiled into the program. Nothing came up for this. Thanks for the idea, though.

I presume this is due to these libs. The program is from an rpm, and alien noted the non-existence of the f2c lib. Originally tried linking the libf2c to mine, but alien still complained. I have searched around unsuccessfully for the f2c libs, but admit to tiring from chasing dead-end links. Being new to the system doesn't help much either. Can anyone help me with the existence and/or compatibility (when found) of these with my Deb. 2.0 package? Thanks! Sounds like your program uses the old libc5 libraries that you don't have installed.
