If the other method (ld.so.config) works, than the above should work too. Did you maybe do $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/src/Xlib-threadsafe ~/bin/mnemonic $ ~/bin/mnemonic If so, then you should have typed "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH". If not, the only other option I can see is that ~/bin/mnemonic is setuid (in that case, LD_LIBRARY_PATH isn't used). > : The best way probably just is to add `~remco/src/Xlib-threadsafe' in > : /etc/ld.so.conf. > > I just tried it, and indeed, it (Mnemonic) runs fine (that is, no X-io > errors).
