I downloaded
http://www.nytimes.com/downloads/acllinux.smotif.tar.gz
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
bash: ./acrossl: /lib/ld-linux.so.1: bad ELF interpreter: No such file
or directory
[sam@nc10 acl]$ sudo ln -s /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /lib/ld-linux.so.1
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
./acrossl: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.5: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
[sam@nc10 acl]$ sudo ln -s /lib/libc.so.6 /lib/libc.so.5
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
./acrossl: error while loading shared libraries: libXpm.so.4: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
[sam@nc10 acl]$ sudo yum install libXpm
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
./acrossl: error while loading shared libraries: libg++.so.27: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
... that's unresolvable - I have no idea where to get libg++.so.27 or
anything close to it.
So I switched to:
http://www.nytimes.com/downloads/acllinux.dmotif.tar.gz
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
./acrossl: error while loading shared libraries: libXm.so.2.0: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
[sam@nc10 acl]$ sudo yum install lesstif-devel
[sam@nc10 acl]$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libXm.so.2 /usr/lib/libXm.so.2.0
[sam@nc10 acl]$ ./acrossl
./acrossl: error while loading shared libraries: libg++.so.27: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory
So whatever I try, I get to that unresolvable libg++ dependency - so I
think you are bang out of luck :o(
