[ILUG] Is it Safe to fake link to libs??

[John Kinsella]

Hi all.

I'm close (I think) to getting Maple 9 to run under Ubuntu Edgy Eft 
(stupid name but there u go).

Guy in Waterloo Maple suggested that I try:

jk> /usr/local/maple9/jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/bin/java

Result was:

Error: failed 
/usr/local/maple9/jre.IBM_INTEL_LINUX/lib/i386/client/libjvm.so, because 
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file 
or directory


But I do have  /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.8

Is it safe to fake up a link so that libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 points to 
libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so?

Or should I install libstdc++-libc6??

Thanks,

john
