ldd _error_ message (vs. normal indication of library not found)

[Daniel Barclay <dsb@smart.net>]

What exactly does it mean when ldd gives the following error message?:

  dsb:~# ldd /usr/local/lib/jdk1.3/jre/lib/i386/server/libjvm.so 2>&1
  /usr/local/lib/jdk1.3/jre/lib/i386/server/libjvm.so: error in loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


That's different from ldd's normal indication of a library's not being
available, for example:

  /usr/local/lib/jdk1.3/jre/bin/i386/green_threads/policytool
        libhpi.so => not found
        libjvm.so => not found
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x40016000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x400b8000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x400bc000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
 


Thanks,

Daniel
