I've been building stuff on Solaris 2.6 lately that tries to link against
curses. There is a libcurses.a in /usr/ccs/lib, but no shared library.
There is a libcurses.so in /usr/xpg4/lib. I don't know if either of
these should be in ld's default library search path, and I don't know
how to find out what that path is. When I run programs like
sawfish-client and the aui locker info, I get errors like:
ld.so.1: sawfish-client: fatal: libcurses.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory
Unfortunately, I have no idea where ld is finding libcurses. Whereever it
is, it's not in the default runpath. I suspect it is not /usr/xpg4/lib,
because if I put /usr/xpg4/lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH, the programs segfault.
These programs are built with /usr/gcc/bin/gcc. Any thoughts on where
the toolchain is finding libcurses?
