Hello: On the following platform: Sparc IPX, Solaris 2.6 Perl 5.005_3 Glib 1.2.4 Gtk+ 1.2.4 gcc 2.8.1 ld 2.9.1 (binutils 2.9.1) Gimp (1.1.9), installed with exec_prefix = /usr/local, croaks on startup (after processing plug-ins/zealouscrop, about to process the extensions) with an error complaining that the symbol gimp_color_selector_register is referenced in libcolorsel_gtk.so, but not defined. (I have lost the exact text, but will regenerate it by morning after I recompile.) No core file is generated, or at least I can't find one anywhere. > echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/opt/lib The compile went successfully, with only warnings about assumed data types, and a problem with PDL. The install of gtk and glib were similarly uneventful. The version of Gimp is from the anon CVS server, updated this morning. This message was also issued before the Gimp failed: gimp: shmat failed...disabling shared memory tile transport It doesn't seem relevant to the larger problem, but I wonder about it anyway. Can anyone suggest a fix? A rejiggering of the link order or flags, maybe? Many thanks, -tom ------------------------------- tomss at ids.net - 401-861-2831
