Simon,
Thank you for responding.
Here's what I get:
"../pre-inst-env" cobcrun -q --help
cobcrun: symbol lookup error: cobcrun: undefined symbol: cob_common_initWhen I run cobcrun with: "../pre-inst-env" sh -xv cobcrun "-q --help"
I get "cobcrun: invalid option --"
Without the "-q" I get the help.
Without the "--help" I get a "cobcrun: missing PROGRAM name"

That's a bad error message...
This is what happens:
1 help2man is invoked
2 help2man invokes cobcrun to get the help
3 help2man sees unexpected stderr output and stops with an error
4 the missing script recognizes the error and assumes there must be a
problem with help2man
...
The most likely reason for cobcrun to not start correctly is that
LD_LIBRARY_PATH misses an important path
Please do the following to see the actual error:
cd /export/home/tools/gnucobol/obj-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin
"../pre-inst-env" cobcrun -q --help
