Yep, it's not defined at the time [1] occures. Actually, defining LD_LIBRARY_PATH almost always is a Bad Thing. > What suggestions do you have regarding this issue? 1. Create a port (local?) for the software. Don't forget to brand executables (only!). 2. Install it to PREFIX=/usr/local (i.e. libraries to /usr/local/lib etc), linuxulator will make the right thing to find needed libraries. 3. Delete the definition of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. 4. Enjoy you work. ;-) WBR -- Boris Samorodov (bsam) Research Engineer, http://www.ipt.ru Telephone & Internet SP FreeBSD committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve
