Hi Erik,

When John comes in, he'll probably be more help, but until then here are some thoughts:

* On my new 64-bit Linux workstation, find /usr -name libGLU.so.1 returns this output:

/usr/X11R6/lib/libGLU.so.1
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libGLU.so.1
/usr/lib/libGLU.so.1
/usr/lib64/libGLU.so.1

* The Linux version of Caret is 32-bit, so maybe 64-bit GLU libs (e.g., /usr/X11R6/lib64/libGLU.so.1) won't work with Caret.

* If you have a 32-bit GLU lib installed somewhere, try setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make sure Caret looks there first. Example for csh/tcsh:

setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib32:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

* Caret runs fine on my 64-bit machine, but ldd output shows it's finding a 32-bit GLU lib:

/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.0.8756: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped

Hello,
I recentrly downloaded Caret5 and followed the installation instructions
carefully. I am using a 64-bit Linux machine (Fedora core), and have
successfully installed many other softwares before.

After installing, I attempt to start caret and it gives me the error:

caret5: error while loading shared libraries: libGLU.so.1: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory

Of course, these lib files are there where they are supposed to be. I am
not the only one over here who gets this error, so we thought we would ask
what the problem is and how to get around it.

Thanks,
