Mark Ovens once stated:

=> I've installed the  Linux version of Netscape on this  4.0 machine to
=> be able to use linux plugins. The first one I tried is Acroread4 -- I
=> made the symlink
=> 	nppdf.so -> ../../../Acrobat4/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so
=> 
=> in /usr/local/lib/netscape-linux/plugins . Now Netscape complains:
=> 
=> ERROR: libc.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
=> Cant load plugin /usr/local/lib/netscape-linux/plugins/nppdf.so. Ignored.
=> 
=> The linux_base port  is installed and happy  (the Communicator itself
=> runs). The libc.so.5 is there:
=>
=> /usr/compat/linux/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/libc.so.5: symbolic link to libc.so.5.3.12
=> 
=> what  am  I  missing? Adding  ``/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib/''  to  the
=> LD_LIBRARY_PATH causes  Netscape to  die at  startup with  bus error.
=> Thanks!
=> 
=
=Try removing LD_LIBRARY_PATH  completely. Several of us  found it broke
=Linux apps (core dumps on start up) after installing linux_base (to get
=Staroffice working).

I did not have it set at all :) I only created it after the Communicator
(4.7) reported the above quoted error... Must be something else :|

Thanks!
