Well, I know you said "non-Debian", but here's what I get under
Kubuntu 6.0.6 (Dapper Drake):

error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


---------------------------------
Thanks Mark!
This is rather strange, because I am using Ubuntu 6.0.6 (Dapper Drake) 
and I have no problem at all running the program. (Please note folks, I 
am using the Gnome version - Ubuntu - and he is using the younger KDE 
version - Kubuntu.)

In fact, for the development of this little program, Mr David Grogono, 
REAL Software's Director of Engineering - who is also a Rev client since 
he participates on the UR-List - was an enormous help in putting me 
right (since I am an absolute novice in RB), and I am very grateful to 
him. However, since we were dealing with RB and not Rev, we were both 
greatly concerned about not creating any kind of confusion as a result 
of it, and I decided to deal with it off-list. So effectively, that is 
what I am going to do now. I've sent a copy of this reply to him, and if 
any kind of recommendation arises as a result, one of us will report 
back to you.

By the way, have you been accompanying the (almost) daily updates 
offered by Kubuntu for the Dapper Drake beta? My Ubuntu is completely up 
to date, but if your Kubuntu isn't, it might account for the discrepancy 
between the shared libraries. And we must remember that our distros are 
both still in beta.

Best regards,
Bob
