Sridhar, you are a jolly fellow aren't you ?
Now I thought I understood the way linux uses libraries and yet you add another mystery Is it because you want to keep me in a perpetual mystified state of mind?

Is it possible to explain what the magic does?
More precisely: what is the difference between an .a and an .so library?
I detailed this a few posts ago. .a is a static library, .so is a
shared library.
How on earth does -lpcap point to /usr/lib?
-lpcap tells the linker to look in every directory in the library
search path to find either libpcap.a or libpcap.so.
This library lives in /usr/lib on most systems, but the simh makefile
hard-coding that path (and hard-coding it to only find the static
library) is a big mistake.
It is, but why not just symlink it for the time being?
Peace... Sridhar

This is OS-dependent, but it's usually LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Some OSs have
a system-wide configuration for that (Solaris has the "crle" system for
example) which can then be overridden by the environment variable.
I really like ld.so.conf on BSD systems.

Only my end does. DCL scripts work GREAT!

as I still
