Below is the error I receive when attempting to run a newly installed version of netscape 4.79 on centOS 4.0 (RHEL 3), which is my personal computer at home. This is the only browser that works on linux that is compatible with the Thorium installer for BMC Patrol. I downloaded the browser from netscapes website browser archive and used the prepackaged installer script with all defaults.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ cd /opt/netscape [EMAIL PROTECTED] netscape]$ ./netscape ./netscape: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory To correct this I intend to install the necessary libraries. At this point I'm only guessing and have googled my way to the conclusion that I need to install libstdc++2.9-glibc2.1 to get the libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 libraries for this version of netscape to run. I am fairly certain that I did not install properly but even so if the libraries were there, shouldn't they be somewhere in the directory I installed this in (maybe not and please don't bother responding if this is too moronic to answer)? The command I used to search for this is: ls -la /usr/lib/gcc2/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 ls -la /usr/local/bin/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 /usr/lib/gcc2 is the objdir I built it in. I followed the installation instructions exactly with using only the default settings. The only setting I entered was the objdir ( objdir is /usr/lib/gcc2 ). Below are the exact steps I took. Extracted tarball to /home/bill/files/gcc/gcc-2.95.3 mkdir /usr/lib/gcc2 cd /usr/lib/gcc2 /home/bill/files/gcc/gcc-2.95.3/configure make bootstrap make install This is the output from running /home/bill/files/gcc/gcc-2.95.3/config.guess i686-pc-linux-gnu The reason I used /usr/lib/gcc2 was because the instuctions sounded like you could install two versions of gcc and make a symbolic link between them. I assumed the current version of gcc libraries would be in /usr/lib and just wanted to keep them together. If none of this makes any sense please do not attemt to make any out of it and let me know if this is even the correct package to install to get the libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 libraries on my system...or just let me know where to download the right thing if it is even part of gcc....If you are able to please let me know how to get this installed onto my system. Thanks in advance! Bill
