One thing you should know is that ldconfig now requires an -aout flag to set the paths for a.out libraries. If you haven't updated your /etc/rc, you should do so (it doesn't get installed automatically with a make world). Alternatively, you can run ldconfig something like this: # ldconfig -aout /usr/lib/aout /usr/local/lib /usr/X11R6/lib Greg -- See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
