This is interesting. Are there two different SO5.1 out there? I'm
running 5.1, downloaded from then StarDivision Web-site, on a slink
system with libc6 2.0 without a hitch (and, no, I didn't install any
libc6 libs from their package). My ldd output (only libc shown):
bash-2.01$ ldd ../office51/bin/soffice.bin
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4003a000)
