You're getting this because a library is missing. This has been that way for the last several releases of Fedora and I've always managed to resolve it by installing a compatibility library. In fact, to emphasize what I thought was clear already, the acrossl binary has no missing components. Here it is: $ ldd /usr/local/bin/acrossl linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00c87000) libXm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libXm.so.2 (0x00d1f000) libXt.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXt.so.6 (0x07d13000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x0080d000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x005d7000) libXp.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXp.so.6 (0x00110000) libXpm.so.4 => /usr/lib/libXpm.so.4 (0x00118000) libstdc++.so.2.8 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.8 (0x00840000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00389000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x003b3000) libSM.so.6 => /usr/lib/libSM.so.6 (0x00b3a000) libICE.so.6 => /usr/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x00994000) libfreetype.so.6 => /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6 (0x00254000) libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 (0x005b7000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00366000) libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib/libXau.so.6 (0x005b2000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x001cd000) libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x0094b000) $ The trouble is, on 32-bit F12 it segfaults and on 64-bit F12 it works. Note that it's a 32-bit binary. If anyone has acrossl working on a 32-bit F12 system, I'd be interested to hear of it. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
