Hi, everyone,

I'm noticing a discrepancy between the way that GDB handles shared
libraries and my Linux system does during execution.  Specifically, my
program works on the command line (well, except for the actual run-time
but that I'm trying to find) but aborts in GDB for lack of shared
libraries.  Specifically:

<quote>
(gdb) run <my_args>
Starting program: <my_binary> <my_args>
<my_binary>: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.0.so: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

Program exited with code 0177.
</quote>

Can anyone tell me why this is happening?  This is an old version of GDB
(5.2-2) but I can't imagine that the problem here is anything other than
my incorrect or incomplete understanding of GDB.

Thanks,
Scott
