With SuSE 6.3, my netscape always starts with an error sayng that a pdf-related plugin could not be loaded:

ERROR: libc.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Cant load plugin /usr/X11R6/lib/Acrobat4/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so. Ignored.

However I have acroread installed and the file is there:

ldd -v /usr/X11R6/lib/Acrobat4/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 => /lib/libNoVersion.so.1 (0x40013000) libc.so.5 => not found libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4001e000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x80000000)

The missing libc5 is also there (package shlibs5):

ldconfig -N -X -v | grep libc /usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib: libc.so.5 => libc.so.5.4.46

What's going on? Are all 6.3 doing that or am I missing a package?

You try to load a libc5 plugin into a glibc netscape. This cannot work.
