[Mono-winforms-list] libX11.so.6.so?

[J Arrizza]

Hi,

Working with Mono on an Ubuntu 10.04 system. After some exceptions were
thrown during a build on our build server (Hudson):

An exception was thrown by the type initializer for
System.Windows.Forms.XplatUI

we traced it down to a couple of things:

- we were missing DISPLAY=:0.0 (which was easy to fix)
- mono could not find libX11.so.6.so. We found the missing lib using "strace
mono my.exe".

Fixed the second one by adding a soft link to /usr/lib/libX11.so.6.3.0, now
all works well.

My question is: why is mono looking for "libX11.so.6.so" (i.e. it has a
second ".so" in there)

BTW Google has no hits for "libX11.so.6.so"... it seems that the correct
name is "libX11.so.6".
