That worked great! thanks.. Yeah, it works. And will keep doing so, so long as you don't use whatever part of .8 caused the authors to decide that it wasn't backwards compatible with .7. Or something else trys to use it, and gets the wrong library because you lied to it about the version number. The correct solution is to recompile the webalizer, or install freetype.so.7 as well as freetype.so.8. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
