Vin Shelton <acs(a)xemacs.org&gt; writes: Maybe you installed the "runtime" libXaw3d, but not the "development" package/etc? Typically, only the dev package has the .so symlinks. The linker resolves the libXaw3d.so to libXaw3d.so.6.1 at link time, and at runtime, the .so link is not needed. This allows a non-dev system to have libXaw3d.so.6.1 and libXaw3d.so.6.2 installed on the same system, without libXaw3d.so being in conflict (between 6.1 and 6.2). -- -Justin vallon(a)mindspring.com
