Re: Helix-GNOME install on Solaris 7 box

["Ben Taylor" <sol7x86 hotmail com>]

I would bet there is a problem with the shared library path.
you may need to add a LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the /etc/dt/config.d
(forget which one) file and export that variable with the
appropriate directories Helix Gnome installed.  Too bad they
didn't fix they *-config files for Solaris to add a -R<libdir>
to the LDFLAGS or set a LD_RUN_PATH variable before building.
