Hi there,

As my original post shows, "compat-libstdc++...." was installed - that was
the first thing I did.

The "compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.110.i386.rpm" has no "libstdc++.so.3"
in there so how do programs that need it locate it.

My applications all come up with:

 error loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.3: can not open
 shared object file: No such file or directory

So it is obvious that there is some issue here. How do I get
my app to run without the required file? (Yes I know that it is
impossible to do that but what work-around can be used - symbolic
links to a file in that compat-libstdc++... ?)
