ld.so.conf question
I have the following ld.so.conf file: /usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw95 /usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw3d /usr/local/lib /usr/lib/libc5-compat /lib/libc5-compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/X11R6/lib Question: Shouldn't /usr/X11R6/lib be before the libc5-compat directory and shouldn't there only be one of them?

As long as you don't have any duplicate libraries that aren't tagged properly, it doesn't matter what order they are in. The problem I'm encountering is that linking -lXmu seems to cause the libc5-compat version of libXtk to get included and then I get warnings about libc5/libc6 conflicts. I was wondering if this could be the cause.

I'm not certain, but I don't think that the end result (ld.so.cache?) is in any way affected by parse order. The dlinker (1.9.7 anyways) has some mechanism by which it `knows' if the app needs a libc5-linked binary or libc6. BTW, what are the ENOENT(ld.so.preload)s that I get so often? Can I use this file to improve efficiency by creating it or something? 14 March '98 manpage says: File containing a whitespace separated list of ELF shared libraries to be loaded before the program. libraries and an ordered list of candidate libraries. Does this mean I can pre-allocate which apps need what, reducing the startup overhead? -- Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
