This goes back to a bug which RedHat had where at one point they distributed the X extension libraries as shared libraries instead of static libraries like everyone else does. See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28196 For a history. If there are any packages which depend on the shared versions of these libs, it's a bug against that package, not against X for not having the shared libraries. If you still really want these broken packages to work (which package is it that's busted?) then do as suggested on that page and install 'XFree86-compat-libs' it looks like. Good luck. (although many of us have been bugging X to start releasing the libs as shared libraries, since we believe this to be 'the right thing' to do. See the Xpert list for a flamewar which has currently died down). -- Billy Biggs [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Avifile mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://prak.org/mailman/listinfo/avifile
