I compared my Makefile of b5 and b7 and found no difference in LD_RUN_PATH. Of course the difference you found explains why it had worked with b5 and not b7. I didn't have done any changes in this area and I think it isn't a good idea to change the LD_RUN_PATH, because then the test will work, but when you try to use xalan in a real application it will still fail, because it isn't able to find the shared libraries. http://perl.apache.org/embperl/INSTALL.pod.1.html#XML_and_XSLT_support says: Extract the archive and make the shared libraries available to the system, either by adding the directories to LD_LIBRARY_PATH or by coping them to a library directory, e.g. /usr/local/lib and run ldconfig -v. I think this is the better way to go, because it will make the libraries permanently available and the current way make test works, tests this. Gerald P.S. You could also insert the directories in /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig ------------------------------------------------------------- Gerald Richter ecos electronic communication services gmbh Internetconnect * Webserver/-design/-datenbanken * Consulting Post: Tulpenstrasse 5 D-55276 Dienheim b.
