OH. Well, thanks! I am used to seeing 'statically linked'. I guess the issues I'm having getting dialog to run from init stem from somewhere else..

It will not resolve symbols using dynamic libraries, since all symbols will reside in the executable itself. A dynamic executable would say: $ ldd foo libpthread.so.0 => /lib/i686/libpthread.so.0 (0x4001f000) libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0x40070000) libwibucmlin.so => /usr/lib/libwibucmlin.so (0x40093000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x403b4000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x404e8000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x405a8000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x405ab000) And a statically linked executable would say: $ ldd foo not a dynamic executable $ file foo file foo: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, statically linked, not stripped ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -- -- Jhair -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
