First of all: thanks for your hints (especially the --root and
--ignoreos  part).
I tried a "smaller" solution and downloaded a package called
libgcc-...rpm which contains the file I am looking for.
It made mozilla detect the new jre, but when I opened a a page
containing a java-applet mozilla froze.
I think next I will try the bigger solution and install a
complete gcc.

Thanks,

Uli.

Now, why didn't you mention that in your original post?  Help stamp
out guesswork!

You would need to install a Linux package of gcc-3.2 --- if you're
using the emulators/linux_base port, all of the standard linux stuff
you have installed is based on RedHat 7.1, so grabbing a .rpm from one
of the RedHat sites would probably be your best course of action.
Make sure you add '--root /compat/linux --dbpath /var/lib/rpm --nodeps
--replacepkgs --ignoreos --ignorearch' to the rpm command line.  Make
sure to get the '--root' path right, or you may trash the system gcc,
which could be a very tricky thing to recover from.

Of course, you're going off into uncharted territory here: no
guarrantee that this will work correctly without severe hackery.  Good
luck.

Cheers,

Matthew

PS. There's an alternative of using linux_base-debian, which provides
much the same sort of facility as linux_base, but based on the Debian
"woody" distribution and using .deb rather than .rpm files. If it
doesn't work with .rpm's you could try .deb's, but I do rather doubt
that will actually get you anywhere.

I am trying the latest linux-binaries (1.4rc2) from mozilla.org
in linux compatibility mode (1.4rc1 works fine).
1.4rc2 now needs a new version of of the java runtime enviroment
which was compiled with gcc32 (j2re-1_4_2-beta-linux-i586.bin)
which I installed and linked to my plugin directory.

When I start mozilla from xterm I can see a request for
libgcc_s.so.1 and the jre is not detected in mozilla's plugin
manager.

So I wonder where this file should come from.

Regards,

Uli.

Assuming that you're trying to run the FreeBSD native mozilla, you
need to install a FreeBSD native java plugin.

Try installing the java/jdk13 port, which includes a netscape plugin
compatible with mozilla.  Because of Sun's amusing licensing terms you
have to compile the port from source and you have to jump through a
few hoops in order to get the Java sources, but once you've got that
far it's pretty simple to get the port installed.

Cheers,

Matthew

Where can I find libgcc_s.so.1 ?

2003-06-21 Thread P. U. Kruppa
Hi!

Where can I find libgcc_s.so.1 ?
(mozilla1.4rc2 seems to need it to run Sun's java plugin)

Regards,

Uli.
