XEmacs bundled with SunStudio 11
Hi there,
I 've just installed Solaris in a Pentium4 laptop and an Athlon-XP desktop.
I used the Solaris 10.0 6/06 version and the Companion CD coming with
Solaris 10.0 6/06. When I installed the packages from the companion CD
I was surprised to see that 'xemacs' couldn't run. It was killed with a message
saying:
couldn't find libncurses.so.5 no such file or directory .
The companion DVD provides only static versions of the ncurses libraries.
Have the Sun developers missed that point?
On the other hand 'xemacs' coming with SunStudio 11 tarball works fine.
Could somebody tell me which is the most appropriate forum to post this
message since this is not so much related to C++? Sun web page is so huge
that it is not so easy finding what you want.
Since SunSolaris 10 Companion DVD provides xemacs why to include it in
sunstudio as well? Then one who may want to install all the packages from
the companion and "export" PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH may get in trouble.
