It gives that error message when g_module_symbol fails to find dia_plugin_init in libxslt_filter.so. If you run nm on that file in your installation (probably in /usr/local/lib/dia/libxslt_filter.so), dia_plugin_init should turn up. -Lars _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/faq.html Main page at http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia
