Bug Description
Platform: Ubuntu Breezy Badger x86 current 20050909
gv will not run: error message is "gv: error while loading shared libraries: libXaw3d.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
ldd reveals that all other library dependencies resolve.
On this system, libXaw3d.so.6 is in /usr/X11R6/lib, and the most current version libXaw3d.so.7 is in /usr/lib. Perhaps gv can be rebuilt against the more current version? If it requires the older version, then it seems a bug against the distribution to get /usr/X11R6/lib back into the default library search path.
