This happened to me. The problem is usually that the library it
is looking for is simply missing from /usr/lib/aout or
/usr/X11R6/lib/aout. Another possibility is that there may be
old softlinks laying around /usr/lib or /usr/X11R6/lib for that
library which are pointing to nowhere.
apollo:/usr/lib/aout# mv libc.so.3.1 xxx
apollo:/home/dillon> netscape
/usr/libexec/ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.3: minor version -1 older than expected 0, using it anyway
ld.so failed: bad magic number in "/usr/lib/libc.so.3"
(fails to run)
apollo:/home/dillon>
apollo:/usr/lib/aout# mv xxx libc.so.3.1
apollo:/home/dillon> netscape
... runs fine ...
See if you can find where those aout/ compatibility libraries are.
Either you have them properly installed and the ldconfig_paths in
/etc/rc.conf (defaults in /etc/defaults/rc.conf) are wrong, or
you do not have them installed.
