Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG maybe you've read my original message that talked about my problems installing Xaw3d. Well, I've figured out something strage that *could* be the problem. First, are libraries with the ending .a a-out libs and libraries ending with .so ELF-libs? If so, then something strange has happened. On my machine on which Xaw3d is working, I find some files called libXaw3d.so.6 (or so) in /usr/X11R6/libs. On my other machine on which it *doesn't* work, I find libXaw3d.a in the same dir. Now, why did this happen? Both of my machines run the same version of all software and I built Xaw3d on both using the same procedure. I assume that somewhere in some file there must be an option how I can fix the problem. But how? Greetings, Nils To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
