Re: FW: Netscape libXpm.so.4 error
Don't think that this is going to work:
Firstly, when I type:
ldd 'which netscape'
it says can't open ...;
Secondly, if I type
$ which netscape
/usr/X11R6/bin/netscape
$ ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape
ldd: /usr/X11R6/bin/netscape is not a.out or ELF
This is because netscape installs with a (script) wrapper to deal with
opening urls in already running netscape, not running as root, etc.
Probably what would give the desired output is the following:
$ ldd /usr/lib/netscape/netscape
As this is where the debian install puts the netscape binary (at least
on my machine)
