Netscape no longer starts after uninstalling Applixware

Applies to

SuSE Linux: Version 6.1
Applix: Version 4.4.1

Symptom:

You have uninstalled Appliware and can no longer start Netscape.
You recieve the error message:
/opt/netscape/netscape: error in loading shared libraries
libstdc++.so.2.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
last exitcode:127

Reason:

By uninstalling Apllixware the library libstdc++.so.2.8 was also uninstalled.

Solution:

This library is contained in the package compat in the series a and simply must be reinstalled.
To accomplish this, start YaST and select the following options:

-> Choose/Install packages
-> Change/create configuration
-> a Linux Base System
-> Scroll down until the cursor has highlighted the compat package and press the space bar, so that an R appears in the brackets.

You can begin the installtion by pressing twice on the [F10] key and then selecting Start Installation.
There is no need to create a backup (you will be prompted).
When complete, exit YaST and Netscape can be started!
