Created by Thorsten Heit (thorsten@wurzelausix.cs.uni-sb.de) on Monday, June 22, 1998 9:09:52 AM PDT Additional Details : When compiling Mozilla, a library called libutil.so will be created. A glibc-2 based Linux system already has a library with the same name Mozilla won't start because of missing symbols in the glibc-libutil.so. I renamed all references to "libutil.*" and "util" in all makefiles, let the make create a libnsutil.[a,so] instead of libutil.[a,so] and then it worked.

ramiro/mcafee: have we gotten permission to make the sweep through xp makefiles and rename these problem libraries?

I think we asked about this back in June and no one really objected, but we didn't schedule the change to go in.

Do you have the changes in hand ?

toshok@netscape.com => toshok@hungry.com

The code that creates the libutil.so isn't contained anymore in mozilla-19981008.tar.gz

Sujay -- please work with xheads to verify this -- thanks

xheads, can I get help verifying this one??? thanks!

toshok, can you mark this verified-fixed if it is working for you now? thanks!

Can someone please verify this bug and mark it VERIFIED-FIXED ????? thanks!

We now use libmozutil.so. Marking verified.
