all good and fine but why would you on a suse 7.0 system with applix from 5.3 install a shlibs5 from 6.2? just smarter to go for the shlibs5 from 7.0. we all know how much stuff changes between distro releases.

I don't think it is a library issue. If it was so it would tell you

When I issue the following command: "applixware" in an x-term it spits out this: "/usr/X11R6/bin/applixware: /opt/applix/applix: No such file or directory"
Yes in fact, a missing shlibs5 package can cause the error "No such file or directory".
I had this problem with another libc5 program installed on Suse 7.0 that worked fine in Suse 6.2
I even verified that all the libs that the program wanted were in the Suse 7.0 system! But it still didn't work because I installed the libc5 from a Suse 6.2 rpm. The difference?
There are 2 different ldd programs for the two lib versions. The shlibs5 package for 7.0 contains wrapper scripts for ldd that dispatch calls to the linker to the correct ldd version depending on what lib is needed.
