Hi,
It appears as though after the recent ports/emulators/linux_base version
bump ( see ports/UPDATING), that the Linux X11 libraries are not
appearing in /usr/compat/linux/etc/ld.so.cache.

realplayer was not the only affected port - acroread was also affected;
both are linux binaries which run under emulation.

Another fix is to do the following:
1) Add the following line to /usr/compat/linux/etc/ld.so.conf:
/usr/X11R6/lib
2) Re-run /usr/compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig.

This will cause the runtime ELF linker cache for the Linuxolator to be
regenerated with the location of the Linux X11 libraries added to the
search path, and thus the libraries should then appear in the cache.

You should then be able to run acroread, realplayer etc. without further
problems, even after a reboot.

I have tried the above suggestions, but I am still getting the following
error:

/usr/local/bin/realplay &
[1] 12982
[root at amd64 ~]# /usr/local/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while
loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file:
No such file or directory


Here is output from ldd:
[root at amd64 ~]# ldd /usr/local/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin | grep "not
found"
/usr/local/lib/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: /lib/libc.so.6: version

        libfreetype.so.6 => not found
        libfreetype.so.6 => not found
        libfreetype.so.6 => not found

Could someone please give me the magic incantation to make this work.

Thanks in advance
