I had this command saved in a nekochan PM, never occurred to me to write it down back then, and I can't seem to recall how to do it now. I'm trying to find the command that shows me the version of a shared library file, for example when I get this output:

Code:

-bash-4.2$ src/dosbox
64078:src/dosbox: rld: Fatal Error: Cannot Successfully map soname 'libtiff.so.3' version 'sgi3.7' under any of the filenames /usr/nekoware/lib/libtiff.so.3:/usr/freeware/lib32/libtiff.so.3:/usr/local/lib/libtiff.so.3:/usr/local/lib32/libtiff.so.3:/usr/lib32/libtiff.so.3:/usr/lib32/internal/libtiff.so.3:/lib32/libtiff.so.3:/opt/lib32/libtiff.so.3:/usr/nekoware/lib/libtiff.so.3.3:/usr/freeware/lib32/libtiff.so.3.3:/usr/local/lib/libtiff.so.3.3:/usr/local/lib32/libtiff.so.3.3:/usr/lib32/libtiff.so.3.3:/usr/lib32/internal/libtiff.so.3.3:/lib32/libtiff.so.3.3:/opt/lib32/libtiff.so.3.3: 
-bash-4.2$

I would like a way to verify that "version 'sgi3.7'" (or verify I hexeditied the .so file's version info correctly...)

I think it might have been a flag to elfdump, but I don't recall - here is what I was trying to do with freeware's tiff version 3.5.7:

Code:

-bash-4.2# elfdump -c  /usr/freeware/lib32/libtiff.so | grep sgi
        [     3667]: sgi1.1
        [     3684]: sgi1.0

From the top of my head, try 'elfdump -L libtiff.so'

[gijoe77]

ok sweet, I think that's it! thanks!

[callahan]

ok sweet, I think that's it! thanks!

I'm a noob to IRIX sysadmin and trying to sort the same issue (with nekoware emacs, which needs libtiff.so.3 for sgi3.8. I tried a symlink to ver 6.0 first, but that just caused it to complain about the lack of sgi3.8.

Can you expand a bit on how to use a hexeditor (and I assume a copy of the file) to fix this issue?

[gijoe77]

give this a try, let me know if this works for you.  look at the IVERSION (I think...):

Code:

-bash-4.2# elfdump -L /usr/nekoware/lib/libtiff.so.3

hit tab to go to asci side
cntr+s to search, type sgi3.7
change sgi3.7 to sgi3.8 
hit F2 to save 
cntr+x to exit

(I would do one change at a time, try emacs again to see if it works, if not do a search for the next instance of sgi3.7, rinse+repeat)

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

[callahan]

Holy crap, it worked! I'm in a bit of a state of disbelief that I just successfully used hexedit to 'hack' some library file. Thank you!

awesome!
