System: NetBSD pueblo.research.att.com 1.4M NetBSD 1.4M (PUEBLO) #0: Sun Nov 28 18:19:20 PST 1999 root@pueblo:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/PUEBLO i386
>Description:
The standard shared library path doesn't include /usr/pkg/lib,
it seems, so 'abacus' won't fire up. I believe that the same
holds for /usr/X11R6/lib.
If an /etc/ld.so.conf is necessary, the package commands should
build it.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ abacus
Shared object "libtk80.so.1" not found
>Fix:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/pkg/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib abacus
