  • Subject: gnome-5250 doesnt work in Linux? huh?
  • From: Scott Klement <klemscot@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

I decided to try out gnome-5250 & gtk-5250 under Linux (as opposed to my
normal FreeBSD) 

It compiles & links cleanly, but for some reason, it can't find
lib5250.so.0 when I try to actually run it.   This is a problem that I
don't have with tn5250 on the same machine -- and a problem that I have
never run across on FreeBSD.

This is what I get:

(sck2) 3:23am ~ > gnome-5250 as400.klements.com
gnome-5250: error in loading shared libraries: lib5250.so.0: cannot open

Does that make any sense?  tn5250 can find it, but gnome-5250 can't?

In case its helpful, here's the point in the "make" where its linking
to these libraries.  It doesn't give any errors, tho...

gcc -DPACKAGE=\"gnome-5250\" -DVERSION=\"0.2\" 
-DPKGDATADIR=\"/usr/local/share\"  -I. -I.      -g -O2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include 
-I/usr/include -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H -I/usr/lib/gnome-libs/include 
-I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include -c gnome-5250.c
gcc  -g -O2 -I/usr/lib/glib/include -I/usr/include -DNEED_GNOMESUPPORT_H 
-I/usr/lib/gnome-libs/include -I/usr/X11R6/include -I/usr/local/include   -o 
gnome-5250  gnome-5250.o gtk5250propdlg.o gtk5250terminal.o  -rdynamic 
-L/usr/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgnomeui -lart_lgpl -lgdk_imlib -lSM -lICE -lgtk 
-lgdk -lgmodule -lXext -lX11 -lgnome -lgnomesupport -lesd -laudiofile -lm -ldb1 
-lglib -ldl -lnsl -lncurses  -L/usr/local/lib -l5250



I'm running RedHat-6.1   Not having this problem under FreeBSD. :)
Any insights appreciated...

Scott
