Duh. Does this mean I should discard the Netscape 6 I downloaded from Netscape? (It won't run, conplaining about Libjpeg.so.62). How is it that others running Suse 6.3 are able to run this? On Wed, 05 Apr 2000, Sam Williams wrote:

Happy to report that Netscape 6 (preview 1) seems to work quite happily with SuSE. Perhaps Corel should be taking a look... ;)

Is there a 6.3 RPM for libjpeg.so.62? I seem to remember having installed an RPM that added this, and then linked my libjpeg.so.6 to the new libjpeg, or something like that. I looked over the mailing list and saw some fixes for this. I'll try one if I can't find an RPM. I would much rather use the actuall RPM. When I start patching things it gets a bit confusing.
Yeah, yeah! I know, it'll be in 6.4. Well if you folks would pick up the phone over at SuSE, I would reactivate my subscription, but I want to play with the new Mozilla NOW! I'm still on hold.............
This is unneccesary if the build occurs correctly at MozHQ. Over the weekend I worked through the issue with one of the Mozilla developers. The problem was in how mozilla was built. The Mozilla development team has been including a copy of a jpg library with the nightly build that stays in the package directory. The library was built with the idea of using the shared library libjpg in /usr/lib. Unfortunately, SuSE's version of the system library sucks.
Once we identified the problem they changed the way the included library was built and the problem is now corrected in the nightly builds. Uncertain about Netscape 6 pre-1 though. If the solution has not been included there, it will be.
Nevertheless, the problem has been corrected in the nightly builds for mozilla, so you should never need to download and recompile the libjpeg again....
