System name:            indiana.mit.edu
Type and version:       Ultra-5_10 8.4.3 (with mkserv)
Display type:           afb

Shell:                  /bin/sh (/afs/sipb/project/sipb/bin/zsh?)
Window manager:         ssh-agent fvwm2

What were you trying to do?
        Start xemacs, using 'add xemacs; xemacs'.

What's wrong:
        xemacs fails to start up, since it can't find a library:

{19} dmaze% which xemacs
/mit/xemacs/arch/sun4x_56/bin/xemacs
{20} dmaze% xemacs
ld.so.1: xemacs: fatal: libDtSvc.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory

        On doa, that library is in /usr/dt/lib.  On indiana, that
        library is missing from /usr/dt/lib, but it is in
        /os/usr/dt/lib.  Adding /os/usr/dt/lib to LD_LIBRARY_PATH as a 
        temporary workaround allows xemacs to start.

What should have happened:
        xemacs should have started.  libDtSvc.so.1 should have been
        propagated via a symlink from /os/usr/dt/lib to /usr/dt/lib.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
