This one's a "new one" for me. First, the stats are: SuSE 7.3, and a Lexmark Z52 printer.....their driver, and a NEW install of 7.3. I don't know "where" the libslang.so.1 lib. comes "from," that is, I did a search on via Yast2 and there isn't any such lib. Yet, the Lexmark Z52 insists on it! Now, this ISN'T for my box here, where I have that lib., but another where I've "dropped" the lib. into the correct dir, which is /usr/lib. The Lexmark Z52 install won't see the lib. Anyone have a fix for this one?
