Mmmm... I think my point, seeing as I was starting from a clean 32bit Fedora installation is that there are multiple points where the compatibility libraries no longer exist. My example would be libc.so.5 which I cheated by symlinking to libc.so.6 - that's not a particularly valid thing to do. What I don't understand is where the version you have comes from. The README file I got with the version I downloaded clearly states that it is linked against libg++.so.27 - but I have no such library or anything close - I'd be curious if you do... [sam@nc10 acl]$ cat README | grep -B11 -A3 libg++ The program is dynamically linked to the following libraries which must exist in a path searched by the loader in order to run the program: libXt.so.6 (X11R6 tested with 6.0 libraries) libXext.so.6 libX11.so.6 libc.so.5 (tested with 5.2.18) libSM.so.6 libICE.so.6 libXpm.so.4 (tested with 4.7) libg++.so.27 (tested with 27.1.0 which is actually 2.7.1.0) libstdc++.so.27 " libm.so.5 (tested with 5.0.5) -- Sam -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
