Does the fact that the libtool passes all 83 tests,
including the
deplib.test
file mean that we're good?
If it's not enough, I can post to comp.unix.sco.programmer
and see if one of the SCO engineers has a definitive
answer. I already had one of them show me how to do a
dump -Lv /lib/libjava.so
sort of command to see the NEEDED lines which supposedly
are evidence of an interlibrary dependency.
I'm not sure I have enough knowhow to create
a test by hand otherwise.
Thanks,
Matt
