setup on FreeBSD plus Apache

howdy-- Boy am I into something now. . . I talked a buddy into install rebol on his beefy FreeBSD server, but he said he got this error: /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libtermcap.so.2" not found My being about as smart as my dog about such things, I thought I'd post to see if I could get a quick answer I could shoot off to him. Then I'll probably be back next with what to do in the httpd.conf, which I'm only slightly smarter than my dog about. Any guidance is very appreciated. BTW he's running a 4.2 GENERIC kernel, I believe. I found a file by that name in /compat/linux/lib, but didn't know whether|what to do with it. T

howdy-- Thanks! That response is worse than Greek to me (I at least had a little schooling with that) but hopefully it makes perfect sense to him. If I had to translate, you are saying that either: 1. install an experimental version, as they don't seem to have this prob. or 2. do that linking thing you said so the libtermcap maps to the libncurses he already has going. But this requires doing an ldconfig to "make it so" right-o I'll see if he flinches or his eyes glaze over for #2, and if not, we'll try #1. thanks tons.

howdy again. haven't heard from dude, so I went all thumbs and poked around as if I had any clue what I was doing: /usr/local/rebol $ldd rebol rebol: libm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libm.so.2 (0x28091000) libtermcap.so.2 => not found (0x0) libc.so.3 => not found (0x0) so I need to do a libncurses.so.5 -> libtermcap.so.2 ??? but there's no libc.so.3, either :( also, it found the libm.so.2 up in /usr/lib looking there I find libtermcap.so but not so.2 also there is a libc.so.5 which seems like I could link. I'm having a blast with this now, for some reason. -- T (trying to make his first unix day a glorious one) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris" <[chris--starforge--demon--co--uk]> To: <[rebol-list--rebol--com]> Sent: Monday, February 26, 2001 8:52 AM Subject: [REBOL] Re: setup on FreeBSD plus Apache Scott wrote:
