>Release: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE i386
>Organization:
>Environment:
/usr/ports/www/netscape47-navigator.us installed
>Description:
If LD_LIBRARY_PATH contains /usr/X11R6/lib, 'netscape'
dies because it's an a.out executable and needs the
a.out versions of the X libraries.
>How-To-Repeat:
Add /usr/X11R6/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH and try to
start netscape.
>Fix:
Unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH, since it shouldn't need anything
special from that.
