We ship an application on FreeBSD (along with a few other platforms), and we currently generate the FreeBSD version on a 2.1.6 box. Our 3.0 CDs arrived late last week, and I spent part of the weekend installing it on a scratch machine. I've been pleased with what I've seen so far, with one exception. When I install a 2.1.6 copy of our application and try running it I get told ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libc.so.2.2" I installed all the compatibility libraries on this system, so I did a little investigating. I *have* a libc.so.2.2 library in /usr/lib/compat, but not in /usr/lib/compat/aout. If I understand correctly that means I have the compatibility libraries, but only in the new ELF format. That seems sufficiently bizarre that I guess I haven't understood correctly. Could some kind soul explain?
