EMACS 19.31 will not "start". I get an error message: ld.so failed: Can't find shared library "libgcc.so.261.0" I have searched for this file and have found: /usr/lib/libgcc.a, libgcc_pic.a, libgcc_p.a /usr/local/lib/libgcc.a /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/cc/libgcc/libgcc1.c, libgcc2.c 2. What command generates the locate database /var/db/locate.database ? The locate man page doesn't tell. 3. I "chsh"ed the root shell to Bash (and also of my normal account), but paths and aliases written in the either the /root/.bashrc ( or the /usr/home/myhome/.bashrc) do not get "accessed" or read or "used". What's up? Thanks for your help. Mark McDonald
