This won't work, because there is no such thing as libX.so.. The
X11 libraries are libX11.so.6.1 (give or take a revision number). He
forgot the m in libXm.so.2 in his post (I'm almost sure of it), which is
the Motif library and you certainly don't want to link that to the X11
library.
And so the
libX.so.2 is not a Motif library...in fact it's not a library at all. IT
doesn't exist. Which makes me think that he meant libXm.so.2, which is
the Motif library.
If that's the case, then whoever build the RPM made a mistake. They need
to either turn off automatic dependancy checking (which would
I believe libX.so.2 is a Motif library. Which means that lesstif should
have a version of it too. To find it, try '%find / | grep "libX.so.2"'
(ignoring the external single-quotes). That will search every directory
you have access to for that filename. Personally, I have never used the
JDK rpm.
I tried to install the jdk1.1.7 rpm, but it asks me for libX.so.2. Where
can I find it? My system is RH 5 w/ kernel 2.0.35; is there some problem
in trying to run jdk 1.1.7 on this system? I have been developing a java
application , and tested it with jdk 1.1.5, and it hangs when I invoke a
Jdialo
