Re: xlib6 (libc5 based) on a debian 2.0



I am not at home now so I can't really look but...
I had a similar netscape problem
I forget exactly how I fixed it but I strace'd netscape
and saw that it was lookin gint he wrong place for a lib...so I made a sym link
(thats 4.04)
then I also had to install some othr library that I didn't have instaleld...
but it works fine now (well...fine as it ever works)
