Hi there-- When I try to compile the FreeBSD 4 XFree86-aoutlibs (i386), I get this error message: >cd /usr/ports/x11/XFree86-aoutlibs/work/lib; for l in $(ls lib*); do >/usr/bin/env OBJFORMAT=aout install -c -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 $l >/usr/X11R6/lib/aout; done >/usr/bin/env OBJFORMAT=aout /sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/X11R6/lib/aout >ldconfig: Ì: trailing characters ignored >ldconfig: Ì: No such file or directory >ldconfig: fzöf >ldconfig: fzöf >ldconfig: f<}äf?~f<}Øf?çûÿf?~fÆ?uÄfE¨ÿEÀ >ldconfig: f<}äf?~f<}Øf?çûÿf?~fÆ?uÄfE¨ÿEÀ >ldconfig: 9Ñt/? >ldconfig: 9Ñt/? >ldconfig: èÚÿÿÿ: trailing characters ignored >ldconfig: èÚÿÿÿ: No such file or directory >*** Error code 255 As a workaround, I manually moved all the libs in the package to a directory I created (/usr/X11R6/lib/aoutlib) and ran this command: ldconfig -aout -m /usr/X11R6/lib/aoutlib This allows me to use Netscape, etc., but I have to re-run the command each time I boot. Not a huge problem, but still, it would be nice to have it correctly installed so that I don't have to worry about it. I am not a linked-library guru by any means. On the FreeBSD bugs list it has this to say about these libs: >usr/X11R6/lib/aout libraries screwed up >Confidential > no >Severity > non-critical >Priority > low >Responsible > freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org >State > open >Class > sw-bug >Submitter-Id > current-users >Arrival-Date > Fri May 28 19:30:01 PDT 1999 >Last-Modified > never >Originator > Denis DeLaRoca <delaroca@ucla.edu> >Release > 3.1 and 3.2 >Environment > FreeBSD acacia.cts.ucla.edu 3.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE #10: >Tue Apr 27 >17:31:04 PDT 1999 >root@acacia.cts.ucla.edu:/usr/src/sys/compile/ROSEBUD >i386 >Description > The /usr/X11R6/lib/aout libraries installed by both the 3.1 and >3.2 >releases are screwed up.

I realize that this describes problems with the 3.x releases, but I wonder if I am encountering a similar problem. Any help in beating this beast down to the ground would be sincerely appreciated.
