[rescue] Grrr.... GTK+

[Andrew Weiss]

If it's solaris, I just change /var/ld/ld.config to look something like:

DD/usr/lib:/opt/sfw/lib:/opt/SUNWspro/lib:/opt/lib:/opt/ssl/lib:/usr/local/lib:/
usr/openwin/lib:/usr/dt/lib

You can use crle to do this.  Works like a charm, even when
LD_LIBRARY_PATH was failing for some reason with smbclient and
libreadline.so.4.
