This question probably has a straightforward answer, but I'm at wit's end trying to figure out what it is. I'm trying to get display postscript working with an X program (specifically xtex) on an RS/6000, and need to link with /usr/lib/libdps.a. We've installed the recent patches to get X11R4 running. It compiles with few problems, using bsdcc. But when I try to run it: > xtex foo.dvi Could not load program xtex Could not load library libdps.a[libdps.o] Error was: No such file or directory And yet, > ls -l /usr/lib/libdps.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 bin bin 412484 Jul 21 1990 /usr/lib/libdps.a* > ar tv /usr/lib/libdps.a rwxr-xr-x 300/300 383828 Jul 21 22:37 1990 libdps.o Here is the output of the final link phase of xtex (the lines are folded here): > bsdcc -v -o xtex xtex.o widgets.o file.o dialog.o dvi-simple.o page.o x11fonts.o mark.o DviPage.o DviPage2.o Valuator.o EzMenu.o EzME.o SmeLine.o -g ../libtex/libtex.a /usr/lib/libdps.a /usr/lib/libXext.a -lasl -L/usr/um/X11R4/lib -lXaw -lXmu -lXt -lXext -lX11 -lm exec:/bin/ld(ld,-H512,-T512,-bnodelcsect,-bhalt:4,-o,xtex,-L/usr/um/X11R4/lib, /lib/crt0.o,xtex.o,widgets.o,file.o,dialog.o,dvi-simple.o,page.o,x11fonts.o, mark.o,DviPage.o,DviPage2.o,Valuator.o,EzMenu.o,EzME.o,SmeLine.o, ../libtex/libtex.a,/usr/lib/libdps.a,/usr/lib/libXext.a,-lasl,-lXaw,-lXmu,-lXt, -lXext,-lX11,-lm,-lg,-bexport:/usr/lib/libg.exp,-lbsd,-lc,NULL) I've tried all kinds of things: * searching through InfoExplorer for more info * playing with compiler/linker flags (e.g., -bnso) * setting LIBPATH to different combinations of ., /lib, /usr/lib * copying /usr/lib/libdps.a to the current directory (!?) I would appreciate any help or ideas with this. Mike -- Mike Hucka | Internet: hucka@caen.engin.umich.edu University of Michigan AI Lab | 1101 Beal Ave., Ann Arbor, MI 48109
