If you compiled from the Wine source and didn't specify any arguments to ./configure, all dll's install to /usr/local/lib. It is possible that the dynamic linker simply doesn't know to look for them there. All it knows is to look in /lib, /usr/lib, and in directories named in the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH and /etc/ld.so.conf. Maybe you just need to add /usr/local/lib to one of those. The system administrator should run /sbin/ldconfig any time it changes /etc/ld.so.conf. If that is not the problem, maybe you do have vestiges of the old version. Some wine packages put the dlls in /opt/wine/lib, others in /usr/X11R6/lib, others I know not where, but at worst you should be able to find out where with FI (may take a while, you can use the -xdev option to find to limit the search if you are sure the old package wasn't on some other filesystem). find / -type f -name libntdll.so Lawson ---oof---
