Problems with Eclipse and jdk 1.3/1.4

[Jan Schultze]

Hi
my libmap.conf looks like this:

# /etc/libmap.conf
#
# candidate             mapping
#
libkse.so.1             libkse.so.1
libkse.so               libkse.so

[/usr/local/jdk1.4.2/bin/java]
libkse.so.1             libc_r.so.5
libkse.so               libc_r.so

[java]
libkse.so.1             libc_r.so.5
libkse.so               libc_r.so

[/usr/local/eclipse/eclipse]
libkse.so.1             libc_r.so.5
libkse.so               libc_r.so

[eclipse]
libkse.so.1             libc_r.so.5
libkse.so               libc_r.so

This maps kse to kse as default, and for java and eclipse kse to libc_r.
I'm not sure if it's necessary for the eclipse binary, but I suppose it 
won't hurt.

Regards,
Jan
