Yet another hamm 'oops' (netscape problem)



After upgrading to all the new stuff released in hamm today, I found that
netscape no longer worked.  It quit with:
/usr/lib/netscape/netscape: can't load library 'libXt.so.6'

So I looked into this a bit more and noticed a serious problem:
nveber@vtech[~]$ ldd /usr/lib/netscape/netscape
        libXt.so.6 => not found
        libSM.so.6 => not found
        libICE.so.6 => not found
        libXmu.so.6 => not found
        libXpm.so.4 => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXpm.so.4 (0x4000b000)
        libXext.so.6 => not found
        libX11.so.6 => not found
        libdl.so.1 => /lib/libdl.so.1 (0x40019000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x4001c000)
        libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x400da000)
nveber@vtech[~]$ /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep libXt.so.6
        libXt.so.6 (ELF-libc6) => /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6
        libXt.so.6 (ELF-libc6) => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
nveber@vtech[~]$ dpkg -S libXt.so.6
xlib6g: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6
xlib6g: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6.0
xlib6: /usr/lib/libc5-compat/libXt.so.6.0


now call me crazy, but why exactly is the libc5-compat library an ELF-libc6
library? :)  I guess you could say xlib6 is back with a twist.. Anyways, I
am reporting this since no one else has yet, I hope it will be fixed
sometime soon. 
(I will send a copy of this to the libc6 maintainer as well)
