Hello
after some people telling that the new version of netscape (version 4.01
beta 5) has quite a stable status, I took the time for a download of 9MB.
But I can't follow these statements. Netscape crashes every minute twice
with a bus error. The configuration I have is a debian 1.2.xx system
with:
Winona:~:1> ldd /usr/local/netscape/netscape
libXt.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
libSM.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libSM.so.6

libXmu.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXmu.so.6
libXpm.so.4 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4
libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6

I tried the old workaround of the libXpm problem that I still had to use
with 4.0b5, but with rather the same results. Starting netscape and the
first click on lower right icon for opening a mail box makes a new window
appear with an immediately crash afterwards.
So what special versions of libs are you using??
