X11 libs problem

1998-06-12 Thread Jeff Shilt
There seems to be some sort of problem with the libraries in
/usr/X11R6/lib.  Almost every program I install that isn't from a debian 
package won't run because it can't find libraries from this directory.
This is my ld.so.conf:
  /usr/local/lib
  /usr/lib/libc5-compat
  /lib/libc5-compat
  /usr/X11R6/lib
  /usr/X11/lib

I've even used the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and it still won't work.

You are using hamm, right?
My guess would be that the programs you install are libc5-based. And for them
to run you need to install libc5-based X11 libraries. They are included
into libc5, xlib6 (not xlib6g), xpm4.7, libg++27 packages.

 I saw your message about libc5 and libc6 to another user.  I've also had 
 trouble
 with this.  Everytime I try to install libc5, it says it conflicts with libc6,
 and disables libc6 and all other packeages that depend on it when running
 dselect.  Is there a way around this?  I'm still trying to get x11r6 running, 
 but
 it requires libc5, which isn't working (because of what I said above.)  Any
 suggestions?

If you has hamm installed, you can install libc5 package available from
hamm/oldlibs section. it does not conflict with libc6.
