YES. Installed. I think I may have originally installed the libc5 version.
when I realized what I had done, I removed all the netscape directories, and
downloaded the libc6 version and installed it. Could there still be traces
of the libc5 version in other places? I installed the libc6 version in the
same place as the libc5 version (/usr/local/netscape/netscape). Anything I
need to "uninstall" to get rid of libc5 stuff?
