The short answer is that there is no difference in the ldd output whether I do it while running XFCE or GNOME. Every line of ldd output ends with a 32-bit hex value in parentheses and that part does differ. However it also differs if I simply run the ldd command on pan in the same environment twice in succession. I used awk to remove the final hex bit and the resulting filtered output is the same in all cases. I'd be glad to post the output anyway, if you want to see it. -- David
