I'm guessing that the differences between 4.10 and 4.11 should not be significant enough to cause breakage. Typically, a symlink is all that is required (ln -s libXpm.so.4.10 libXpm.so.4). However, if you compile the program against a newer version, it's likely to break with older versions. I'm not sure why you didn't have the symlink, and the libXpm in potato is 4.11. Looks like another user posted a solution to your Bash problem. -- +----------------------------------------------------+ | Eric G.
